Spiteri, Damian – Research in Education, 2013
This paper appraises a simulation activity which forms part of the postgraduate social work curriculum offered at the University of Strathclyde. It shows how simulations that are based on activities that are as close as possible to actual "real-life" situations can be applied as a teaching strategy so as to enable students to integrate…

Mong, Christopher J.; Ertmer, Peggy A. – Educational Technology, 2013
STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) disciplines are considered key to the scientific and economic improvement in the United States. As noted by the Carnegie Corporation of New York (2011), we
need a nation in which "all" teachers and thus, all students, are "STEM-capable" (p. 2), that is, equipped with a broad…

Tsai, Chia-Wen; Lee, Tsang-Hsiung; Shen, Pei-Di – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2013
Many private vocational schools in Taiwan have taken to enrolling students with lower levels of academic achievement. The authors re-designed a course and conducted a series of quasi-experiments to develop students' long-term computing skills, and examined the longitudinal effects of web-enabled, problem-based learning (PBL) and self-regulated…

An, Yun-Jo – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2013
Designing problem-based learning (PBL), especially blended PBL, is very different from designing traditional teacher-centered instruction and requires a new set of knowledge, skills, and attitudes. To be successful, teachers must step out of their comfort zone, adopt new roles and responsibilities, and develop new knowledge and skills required in…

Seymour, Alison – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2013
It has been suggested that problem-based learning (PBL) has a positive impact on the team-working skills of medical, health and social care students. These skills are important for graduates to master to enable effective collaborative working in today's diverse health and social care settings. What is not clear from the literature is how…

Kumar, Rita; Refaei, Brenda – College Teaching, 2013
We used Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as a new pedagogy in an intermediate composition course. Our course design was based in constructivist pedagogical practices, which suggest that knowledge is co-created through social interactions. Although professors have much to offer students, students can also learn important lessons through interactions…

Milanick, Mark; Graham, Kerri; Wessel, Melissa – American Biology Teacher, 2013
Students are provided with a mystery concerning dogs that are paralyzed. This motivates a laboratory exercise to measure parameters from the dog's "blood" to determine whether the paralysis is due to pesticide poisoning or an autoimmune attack on nerve myelin. Most of the materials are available from the grocery store. The real-world nature of the…
