SuperDad Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 For those of you that implement PBL in your schooling... how do you do it? What does it look like? What are the benefits, pros/cons, etc.? My kids do something similar to PBL, but we've been doing it way before I heard the term "problem-based learning". So, what is it in its current incarnation?

woolybear Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 I think you are referring to project based learning? If so, I started a thread on it. http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=336633&highlight=project+based+learning Also, if you do a search on project based learning, you will come up with some other threads.

Bayt ul-Hikmah Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Hmm. Project-based is quite a different thing than problem-based. If you're going for project-based, definitely check out the link above and do a board search. There are some amazing threads. For problem-based learning, check out these Think! challenges.

Connections Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Just last week I found http://www.rfwp.com/series/problem-based-learning-units-by-shelagh-gallagher. I do not yet have any experience to share but I do plan to incorporate this approach into our homeschool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
