SYNOPSIS OF PROBLEM
BASED LEARNING
"How do I get my students to think?". Conventional teaching can only do that much but not so much more that is required of
a competently holistic graduate. Stakeholders including employers and the community want graduates who are not only
knowledgeable
in the content area but generic skills that includes thinking skills, endurance, proseffional ethics,
communication skills and problem solving, which problem-based learning (PBL) can deliver best. So, what is PBL and how
"
is it unique as compared to the other approaches.
Basically, PBL is an active-learning and learner-centred approach where
unstructured problems are used as the starting point and anchor for the inquiry and learning process. It is not just about
problem-solving processes but a pedagogy based on constructivism in which realistic problems are used in conjunction with
l---------the-desigrr-of-a
)ea~ronmen~ere
inquiry activities, self-directed learning, information mining, dialogue and
collaborative problem-solving are incorporated. This form of education was mainly developed for the sciences but is now
used in other areas of education including the humanities, law and engineering among others at Aalborg University,
Denmark, Universiti Tun Hussein Om! Malaysia, Malaysia, University of Delaware, United States, Republic Polytechnic,
Singapore, McMaster University, Canada and Victoria University, Australia.
