This study explored learners' experience in an online problem-based learning (PBL) Moodle class. Additionally, an assessment of the PBL approach in enhancing collaborative learning was done to evaluate its effectiveness in eLearning. Lastly, the researchers make recommendations for an effective adoption of PBL in Moodle. To achieve this, an…

The metaverse is defined as an inevitable evolution of the internet and holds great potential as a new medium for social interaction. Its integration into educational environments has been increasingly recommended. This study aimed to explore a technology-supported solution for the challenges experienced in the problem-based learning (PBL) process…

In this study, we developed an online problem-based learning (PBL) module for the Impulsive Force subtopic of Physics Form Four and studied its perceived usability among Physics trainee teachers. The research design of this study is developmental research and a quantitative study using a survey approach. The module was developed according to five…

This article explores inquiry-based learning (IBL) pedagogy, particularly in mathematics education, examining how it differs from problem-based learning (PBL) and case-based learning (CBL). IBL is defined as a student-centered approach involving sequenced problems or tasks that build engagement and understanding through group work. While IBL, PBL,…

This study explores students' perspectives on the integration of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Blended Learning (BL) in a collaborative course environment. By examining a cohort of undergraduate students across two interdisciplinary courses, the research aims to understand how these pedagogical approaches influence student collaboration,…

This study examines whether case-based learning (CBL) in a core finance class improves student performance. It analyzes students' exam scores over two semesters at a regional U.S. public university. During the first semester, CBL is used to teach two sections of an intermediate corporate finance class. During the subsequent semester, the first…

Problem-based learning ignites hands-on exploration, ignites curiosity, and sparks lifelong problem-solvers. This Spotlight will help readers learn how virtual reality can be used for unique problem-solving and engagement; explore how students are publishing their research in peer-reviewed journals; uncover how after-school programs are helping…

Novice nurses often report a disconnect between textbook knowledge and realworld practice which damages their confidence in providing clinical care to patients. Nursing students indeed encounter numerous challenges in clinical environments such as inadequate resources and a gap between learning theory and clinical practice. To close the…

To enable interactive remote education on electrical safety in biomedical engineering, a real-life problem-based laboratory module is proposed, implemented and evaluated. The laboratory module was implemented in a freestanding distance course in hospital safety for three consecutive years and was based on electrical safety for medical devices,…

This research aimed to investigate the impact of learning strategies with learning styles on learning performance in disaster mitigation. Problem Based Learning (PBL) and Direct Instruction (DI) are the strategies used. The learning styles used as moderator variables are kinaesthetic, visual and auditory. The research subjects included two junior…

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of argumentation, during the hypothetico-deductive reasoning (HDR) process in the problem-based learning (PBL) approach, on nursing students' achievements and to determine the argumentation levels in the biochemistry course on the topic of endocrine and nervous systems. The participants…

This study aimed to juxtapose the impacts of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) methodology implemented within a three-dimensional (3D) virtual environment against PBL in a conventional face-to-face setting, along with a control group, on students' learning performance, conceptual comprehension, and spatial aptitude. The investigation concentrated…

Problem-based learning (PBL) is a teaching technique in which students' learning is conveyed using real-world problems. However, the implementation of PBL is confronted with several challenges, namely the involvement of students, the definition of the teacher's role, and the development of effective assessment mechanisms. This paper describes and…

According to extensive research, problem-based learning (PBL) in STEM education improves student learning outcomes and supports them in gaining practical skills necessary for upward future careers. Despite current efforts to promote PBL-STEM activities in education, their uptake in life science remains low. Several types of research involving…

Background: Developing teamwork skills is a central objective of engineering education. Psychological safety and conflict management are pivotal components of teamwork, yet despite their significance, research in engineering project-based learning (PBL) contexts is scant. Understanding students' experiences with psychological safety and its…
