Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is an increasingly popular, dynamic instructional strategy implemented in classrooms across the country. The skills developed in PBL experiences are the skills that students will need for success in the global economy. PBL engages students in problem solving to increase student achievement, interest, and engagement.
This course will explore the elements of Problem-Based Learning. Emphasis will be placed on student-centered pedagogy that involves the re-imagination and re-design of the classroom. With PBL, students are involved in critical thinking, collaboration, and communication.
