In this section, you will learn about the key characteristics of project based learning (PBL) that enhance critical thinking and problem solving skills to support student-centred learning.

Problem Based Learning

START

Problem-based learning (PBL) is a teaching strategy that leads students to learn to learn and encourages students to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills that they can carry for life. It was developed by McMaster University Canada in medical and health sciences by the end of the 1960’s.

Problem Based learning

PBL crosses a broad spectrum of instructional patterns, from total teacher control to more emphasis on self-directed student inquiry. Patterns of power and control of decision making are affected by what calls “reculturing”. It is a shift from the traditional didactic teaching where the core knowledge discovery process lies almost entirely in the hands of the learner rather than the teacher.
