Velmurugan, Giajenthiran; Stentoft, Diana; Davidsen, Jacob – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2021
An essential part of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is the students' group work. What happens in students' group work when no tutor/facilitator is present is normally a hidden land. Thus, there is limited research on students' interactional way of doing PBL, this study tries to amend this by looking at how students conduct group work without any…
