1. Learning is driven by challenging, open-ended problems with no one “right" answer
Problems/cases are context specific.
2. Students work as self-directed, active investigators and problem-solvers in small collaborative groups (typically of about five students).
3. A key problem is identified and a solution is agreed upon and implemented.
4. Teachers adopt the role as facilitators of learning, guiding the learning process and promoting an environment of inquiry.]]> 2019-01-15 10:55:47 UTC https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/320690079 a_almasrai https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/320691357 Rather than having a teacher provide facts and then testing students ability to recall these facts via memorization, PBL attempts to get students to apply knowledge to new situations. Students are faced with contextualized, ill-structured problems and are asked to investigate and discover meaningful solutions.]]> 2019-01-15 11:01:16 UTC https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/320691357 a_almasrai https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/320692146 A small research project based on identifying a problem and finding solutions to it.]]> 2019-01-15 11:04:48 UTC https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/320692146 a_almasrai https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/321093369 1. Evaluate the groups’ products and performances.
 2. Use rubrics to determine whether students have clearly communicated the problem, background, research methods, solutions (feasible and research-based), and resources.
3. Decide whether all group members participated meaningfully. You should consider having your students fill out reflections about their learning (including what they’ve learned about the content and the research process) every day, and at the conclusion of the process.]]> 2019-01-16 06:12:21 UTC https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/321093369 a_almasrai https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/321093858 2019-01-16 06:17:00 UTC https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/321093858 a_almasrai https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/321095554 2019-01-16 06:29:25 UTC https://padlet.com/a_almasrai/Pbl/wish/321095554
