With structure and scaffolds, your students generate and investigate questions to solve an authentic challenge. They engage in advocacy service when they communicate in any form their challenge solutions, to those who might implement the suggested solutions. Or your students engage in direct service when they enact their conclusions.
For your in-person class, hybrid class, synchronous or asynchronous online class.
The workshop presents problem-based learning’s features, its beginnings at McMaster University Medical School; and how problem-based learning and project-based learning have evolved to become synonymous. With individual reflections, collegial collaboration, interactive activities modeling parts of PBL, readings, videos, slides presentation, and a Google Drive full of resources – step-by-step you outline a high quality PBL unit for your students.
