Benmesbah, Ouissem; Lamia, Mahnane; Hafidi, Mohamed – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
Adaptive learning has garnered researchers' interest. The main issue within this field is how to select appropriate learning objects (LOs) based on learners' requirements and context, and how to combine the selected LOs to form what is known as an adaptive learning path. Heuristic and metaheuristic approaches have achieved significant progress on…

Chamila Subasinghe – Teaching in Higher Education, 2024
Studio, a breeding ground for curiosity and wonder, has become more of a confined space for innovation lately. Infrastructure shortage also has triggered a somewhat impersonal attitude to studio learning. Can Design-Activism mitigate such stresses on the studio by becoming an alternative mode of driving studio processes? Reflectively, this study…

van den Beemt, Antoine; van de Watering, Gerard; Bots, Michael – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Increasingly higher education programs are made learner centred and flexible to face societal changes. Challenge-based learning (CBL) is an educational concept shaping these open and flexible programs. This article aims to articulate a framework for analysing CBL characteristics within and between study components in academic curricula. It…

Hasan Maksum; Wawan Purwanto; Siman; Dina Ampera; Dori Yuvenda; Hanapi Hasan – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2024
Preliminary research showed that the learning process could have been more optimal, and this led to the research to develop a TEFA Model with the PBL concept as a valid, practical, and effective method of improving the problem-solving and communication skills of Automotive Vocational Education students. The process involved using the Research and…

Luiz Ney d’Escoffier; Aida Guerra; Marco Braga – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2024
Education for sustainability demands transformative knowledge, which can be obtained through problem-based, project-organized learning (PBL). However, the integration of PBL and sustainability in higher education has not yet met the needs required due to the lack of application of a systemic perspective and strategy. In this literature review, we…

Robertson, Joseph – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The typical middle school in the United States is designed for superficial learning rather than deeper learning, compliance rather than engagement. This study sought to understand and develop problem-based learning (PBL), student choice, and community partnerships to increase deeper learning. Participants and data collected in Cycle 1 consisted of…

Mohamad Saadeghvaziri; Marzieh Eskandari; Mathew Bandelt – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2025
Transitioning from K-12 to college poses significant challenges due to the shift from guided learning to self-directed engagement. Traditional pedagogies such as inquiry-based learning and flipped classrooms have not fully resolved issues like poor retention and low graduation rates in STEM fields, which are critical for economic growth and…

Kathy L. S. Garneau – ProQuest LLC, 2023
A theoretical framework grounded in constructionism and pragmatism theories supported research on learning by doing. This framework underpinned the purpose of this qualitative case study to explore how K-8 STEM teachers facilitated projects utilizing innovative technologies to solve community-based problems. The problem was a lack of connection…

Su, King-Dow – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2022
This research used mixed effects to construct a PBL-STEM (problem-based learning with STEM) questionnaire with high validity and reliability. The benefits of PBL-STEM focused on cross-disciplinary and longitudinal research to analyze students' self-efficacy in life science. All 175 university students who attended this course as an elective…
