Project/problem-based learning (PBL) can provide an effective model for school reform when implemented with fidelity. In the report, "Rising Above the Gathering Storm," it was recommended that if the U.S. is to remain competitive in the 21st-century economy, there must be a serious effort to "enlarge the pipeline of students who are…

Problem solving has been characterized as one of the 'employability skills' due to the high demand for such abilities in a modern workplace. Most universities do not monitor progress of the generic problem-solving skills (PSS) of their students due to a lack of available assessment tools. We used previously reported 15-min tests to measure the…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between student motivation and technology in the implementation of problem-based learning (PBL) in a technologically enhanced active learning classroom (ALC). Design/methodology/approach: PBL was implemented in an undergraduate course in human osteology (n=49) at a large Canadian…

Each learning model has different pattern and approach that will affect the learning outcomes. Thus, a study is required focused on the effect of implementing the learning model so that it can become a reference for teachers. The study aimed to compare the students' problem-solving skills using Project Based Learning (PjBL) model and…

This study examined the relationship of Problem-based Learning (PBL) and medical students' attitudinal behavior and academic outcomes. The analyses of 14 independent, primary studies conducted between 2003-2016, on 4,981 medical students across various medical schools were included in the study.
