Student-centered Problem-based Learning Research Articles

Pengaruh Model Problem Based Learning Terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Kreatif Siswa pada Pembelajaran IPA

The purpose of this research is to identify, describe and analyze the results of several primary studies on the effect of the PBL model on the creative thinking skills in science. Systematic literature review (SLR) was used as the method in this study, through searches on the Google Scholar and DOAJ databases from 2018 to 2022, resulting in 15 primary studies that met the specified inclusion criteria. Each article was recorded and then classified based on title, year of study, level of education, and type of research to be analyzed one by one. The results showed that PBL had an influence on the development of students' creative thinking skills science learning, because with the PBL model the learning process applied student-centered problem-based learning activities with the teacher acting as a facilitator, and involving students in independent discovery activities through collaboration between students in small groups to solve problems representatively. So that PBL is suitable to be applied to achieve the goals and urgency of learning, especially in developing students' creative thinking skills.

The comprehensive reform research and practice of basic medical teaching based on the basis of "student-centered"

The development trend of medical education is comprehensive, which is characterized by breaking the boundaries among different disciplines, constructing a main line centering on organ and system, and implementing student-centered problem-based learning. This paper analyzed the main problems of basic medical education in Wuhan University of Science and Technology, such as insufficient teaching reform to promoting students' autonomous learning and failed to create excellent teaching and research group et al. Also, the paper proposed comprehensive reform measures such as integrating teaching units, establishing Teacher Education Development Center, implementing Course director and Team leader system, promoting teaching model of student centered and integrating curriculums of basic medicine to establish course model centering on the organ and system et al, with some success. Key words: Student-centered; Project head; Team leader; Basic Medicine; Comprehensive reform

Goals and Strategies of a Problem-based Learning Facilitator

This paper describes an analysis of facilitation of a student-centered problem-based learning group. The focus of this analysis was to understand the goals and strategies of an expert facilitator in support of collaborative learning. This was accomplished through interaction analysis using video data and stimulated recall to examine two PBL group meetings. In this paper, we examine how specific strategies were used to support the PBL goals of helping students construct causal explanations, reason effectively, and become self-directed learners while maintaining a student-centered learning process. Being able to articulate these strategies is an important step in helping others learn the art of PBL facilitation.

Following the forsaken: a procedural description of a problem-based learning program in a school of nursing studies.

This paper reports the findings of one stage in an ongoing project to evaluate, from the students' perspectives, a student-centered problem-based learning (PBL) program in a School of Nursing Studies. We begin by making a comparison between teacher-centered education and religious devotion, and liken PBL to a congregation without a priest. A topographical account of the setting follows, describing the typical activities and events that characterize the program. Throughout the course of this account, a number of issues arise: the role of the facilitator, group dynamics, mutual responsibility and motivation for learning. These are touched on briefly, but we do not attempt to make a substantive theoretical contribution. Despite the widespread popularity of PBL in nursing schools, there have been few empirical studies conducted and, consequently, the adoption of PBL in nursing has been dependent upon the research of the very different discipline of medicine and medical education.

What is the future of problem-based learning in medical education?

Student-centered problem-based learning (PBL) has been implemented as an alternative curriculum by several medical schools in the United States and elsewhere. Recently, attempts to integrate PBL with lecture-based curricula have created "hybrid" curricula with varying amounts of the philosophical underpinnings of student-centered PBL. Greater clinical and research demands on faculty time threaten to diminish the use of PBL in existing curricula, whereas opportunities for expansion of PBL in medical education are being created by community-based and interdisciplinary education programs.
