2022 Teaching & Assessment Symposium
Problem-Based Learning: What It Looks Like and How to Implement It Effectively
Location
University Center
Description
The overall goal of this presentation is to provide an example of problem-based learning (PBL) and address issues related to effective implementation. PBL is a student-centered instructional model in which students learn content in the context of authentic problem-solving. The model aligns with core learning and motivation principles and has proven to be effective at fostering deep-level learning outcomes such as the ability to apply learning in real-world situations. During this presentation I will share an effective PBL project, the Calvin Project, which I use to help teacher education students learn about student motivation by trying to solve the motivation problems of Calvin from the Calvin and Hobbes comics. This presentation will discuss development, implementation, and assessment of PBL as well as student perceptions and instructor time commitment.
