Vickery, William L. – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2013
When problem based learning occurs in a social context it is open to a common social behaviour, scrounging. In the animal behaviour literature, scroungers do not attempt to find resources themselves but rather exploit resources found by other group members (referred to as producers). We know from studies of animal behaviour (including humans) that…

In the current paper, we provide quantitative data to substantiate the…

Fischer, Frank; Troendle, Pamela; Mandl, Heinz – Interactive Learning Environments, 2003
Up to this point, university education has largely remained unaffected by the developments of novel approaches to web-based learning. The paper presents a principled approach to the design of problem-oriented, web-based learning at the university level. The principles include providing authentic contexts with multimedia, supporting collaborative…
