Introduction to Problem-based Learning

Résumé du livre

Introduction to Problem-based Learning is for students and teachers in a Problem-based Learning course. This book will help them understand this popular learning method. It enables students and teachers to experience the full potential of Problem-based Learning. Introduction to Problem-based Learning pays particular attention to the skills students need to operate within as well as outside Problem-based groups. In this revised edition special attention is given to: - How students best can organise their studies in a Problem-based learning environment; - Methods of structuring discussions of the various types of problems students get confronted with; - Practising the various skills and roles in a tutorial group; - The role of the discussion leader. A new chapter is devoted entirely to this topic; - Cultural diversity in Problem-based Learning for students in an truly international environment. - This third revised edition has been updated where necessary. There are some new figures included and more attention is paid to the use of computers, tablets and Internet in problem-based learning. This book is also available in Dutch as: Probleemgestuurd Leren.
