Yes, it’s actually true – you

can get a degree by repeating

everything the teacher says. The psychological mistake in learning:

”We pretend that there is co-incidence between what is being taught and what is being learned” (Knud Illeriis, 1998)

Learning as reproduction

PBL Workshop - Steinbach March 2010 6

Learning takes place through the active

behavior of the student: it is what he does that

he learns, not what the teacher does.

Ralph W. Tyler (1949)

Because …….

You never know for sure

WHAT they learn

WHEN they learn

HOW they learn

WHERE they learn

WHY they learn
