Evelina Jaleniauskiene; Dalia Venckiene – Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-based Learning, 2025
The ideas of project-based language learning (PBLL) align well with the action-oriented approach, which is considered a promising approach in language education (Piccardo & North, 2019). In this study, we carried out the scoping review of empirical research articles describing the implementation of PBLL in higher education during the period…

Joseph F. Bron; Maricar S. Prudente – International Journal of Research in Education and Science, 2024
Problem-based learning (PBL) is linked to developing learners' creative thinking in mathematics. This process-oriented approach capitalizes on using problems to stimulate learning through independent and collaborative investigations. This meta-analysis looked at the effectiveness of using PBL to influence mathematical creativity. Fifteen results…

Moffett, Jenny; Hammond, Jennifer; Murphy, Paul; Pawlikowska, Teresa – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2021
Although the evidence base around uncertainty and education has expanded in recent years, a lack of clarity around conceptual terms and a heterogeneity of study designs means that this landscape remains indistinct. This scoping review explores how undergraduate health professions' students learn to engage with uncertainty related to their academic…

Williams, Jonathan M. – Journal of Education and Training Studies, 2014
A fundamental understanding of anatomy is critical for students on many health science courses. It has been suggested that a problem-based approach to learning anatomy may result in deficits in foundation knowledge. The aim of this review is to compare traditional didactic methods with problem-based learning methods for obtaining anatomy…

Nowrouzian, Forough L.; Farewell, Anne – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2013
Teamwork has become an integral part of most organisations today, and it is clearly important in Science and other disciplines. In Science, research teams increase in size while the number of single-authored papers and patents decline. Team-work in laboratory sciences permits projects that are too big or complex for one individual to be tackled.…

Averett, Paige E.; Arnd-Caddigan, Margaret – Journal of Teaching in Social Work, 2014
This article includes a review of the literature on personal epistemology and the reflective judgment model and applies these theoretical concepts to undergraduate students who engage in service-learning projects. The application will provide instructors with greater understanding of students' abilities and limitations in their…
