Learning Issue 1What is a PBL problem
Any doubt (difficulty uncertainty) thatrequires resolution
Also known as trigger case or task Can be in the form of a dilemma a challenge
or an open-ended task
Usually ill-structured and there are more thanone possible alternative solutions

How are problems presented tothe learners
Using a Problem Scenario
Sets the contextsituates the problem
Informs learners the stance or role they should
adopt when solving the problem Embeds content of the subject
Includes a hook
Engages the learners in the context
Could be a newspaper story or somethingprovocativeinteresting

Run Run Runaways
Two brothers aged 10 and 8 stole money from theirparents and ran away from home for the second time intwo years After three days they returned home An NGOWomens Aid Organisation reported that runaways appearto be getting younger with them being more daring and
willing to experiment and to lsquopush boundariesrsquo
You are a social worker with the Ministry of WomensAffairs and Community Development What programswould you recommend to reduce the problem of young
runaways and how could these be conducted

Activity 32 Identify Characteristics of aGood Problem Scenario
Identify the following characteristics in thescenario given
Nurulhuda AR UPSI PBL Workshop IAB April 2012
Characteristics YesNo
The problem scenario has- a hook which engages the learner- a context (setting) for the problem throughthe role the learner will adopt
- content of the subject embedded in the
problem- one of the following forms a dilemma challengeopen-ended task

Why use problems
Serve as triggers for learning
Motivate learners to
act on the problem think of WHAT and WHY they are learning it
Learn meaningful core content (and whereapplicable skills and attitudes) required for
dealing with the problem
Prepare learners for future real worldapplication

Approach 1(Schmidt amp Moust 2000)
Identify type ofknowledge that
should be learned
Identify type ofproblems that willassist learners in
gathering thatknowledge
Approach 2(Savin-Baden amp Howell-

Incorporate keyprinciples asguidelines to

Learning Issue 4Key Principles in Designing PBL Problems
The problem should
require the learning of new core knowledge
align with learning outcomes of the programme of study
adapt to learners prior knowledge
be presented in a context that is relevant and authentic to thecurrent or future profession of the learner
stimulate elaboration through cues in the problem
encourage integration of knowledge
stimulate self-directed learning by encouraging generation oflearning issues and research
encourage discussion and exploration in the subject matter

Learning Issue 1What is a PBL problem
Any doubt (difficulty uncertainty) thatrequires resolution
Also known as trigger case or task Can be in the form of a dilemma a challenge
or an open-ended task
Usually ill-structured and there are more thanone possible alternative solutions

How are problems presented tothe learners
Using a Problem Scenario
Sets the contextsituates the problem
Informs learners the stance or role they should
adopt when solving the problem Embeds content of the subject
Includes a hook
Engages the learners in the context
Could be a newspaper story or somethingprovocativeinteresting

Run Run Runaways
Two brothers aged 10 and 8 stole money from theirparents and ran away from home for the second time intwo years After three days they returned home An NGOWomens Aid Organisation reported that runaways appearto be getting younger with them being more daring and
willing to experiment and to lsquopush boundariesrsquo

Characteristics YesNo
The problem scenario has- a hook which engages the learner- a context (setting) for the problem throughthe role the learner will adopt
- content of the subject embedded in the

Learning Issue 4Key Principles in Designing PBL Problems
The problem should
require the learning of new core knowledge
align with learning outcomes of the programme of study
adapt to learners prior knowledge
be presented in a context that is relevant and authentic to thecurrent or future profession of the learner
stimulate elaboration through cues in the problem
encourage integration of knowledge
stimulate self-directed learning by encouraging generation oflearning issues and research
encourage discussion and exploration in the subject matter

The problem should
require the learning of new core knowledge
align with learning outcomes of the programme of study
adapt to learners prior knowledge
be presented in a context that is relevant and authentic to thecurrent or future profession of the learner
stimulate elaboration through cues in the problem
encourage integration of knowledge
stimulate self-directed learning by encouraging generation oflearning issues and research
