Designing cases in problem-based learning to foster problem-solving skill

Designing cases in problem-based learning to foster problem-solving skill.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of case segmentation schemes in problem-based learning (PBL) on the development of problem-solving skill, self-directedness and technical knowledge. Seventy-four dental education students were randomly assigned to 12 PBL groups. Six groups experienced PBL cases that were formatted in short segments and six groups experienced PBL cases that wer...

e-learning Utilization Based on the Problem-Solving Approach

Introduction & Objective: Paying attention to the process and approaches to the problem solving from the view of the e-learning courses designers, will improve the aspects of development. The problem-based learning provides the discovery structure and helps the students to internalize their learning. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that lead to more utili...

Skill Assessment in Problem Solving and Simulated Learning Environments

Simulated learning environments provide an efficient means for improving individual skills in specific problem solving and learning situations. One crucial aspect of an optimal system for simulated training environments is its capability to keep track of the improvements of the user along the whole training process. In this paper we present a set-theoretical formal framework that can be applied...

Effectiveness of Problem Based Learning as a Strategy to Foster Problem Solving and Critical Reasoning Skills among Medical Students.

BACKGROUND Problem based learning (PBL) is an instructional approach that utilizes problems or cases as a context for students to acquire problem solving skills. It promotes communication skills, active learning, and critical thinking skills. It encourages peer teaching and active participation in a group. METHODS It was a cross-sectional study conducted at Al Nafees Medical College, Isra Uni...
