Direct linkDolmans, Diana H. J. M. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2019
Many educational institutions in higher education switched to problem-based learning (PBL) in the last 5 decades. Despite its' successful implementation worldwide, many institutions still encounter problems in their daily teaching practices that limit deep learning in students. This raises the question: How else can we look at PBL practice and…

van der Vleuten, Cees P. M.; Schuwirth, Lambert W. T. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2019
Arguably, constructive alignment has been the major challenge for assessment in the context of problem-based learning (PBL). PBL focuses on promoting abilities such as clinical reasoning, team skills and metacognition. PBL also aims to foster self-directed learning and deep learning as opposed to rote learning. This has incentivized researchers in…

Schmidt, Henk G.; Mamede, Silvia – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2020
In this article, the contributions of cognitive psychology to research and development of medical education are assessed. The cognitive psychology of learning consists of activation of prior knowledge while processing new information and elaboration on the resulting new knowledge to facilitate storing in long-term memory. This process is limited…

Stentoft, Diana – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2019
Medical education strives to foster effective education of medical students despite an ever-changing landscape in medicine. This article explores the utility of projects in problem-based learning--"project-PBL"--as a way to supplement traditional case-PBL. First, project-PBL may enhance student engagement and motivation by allowing them…

Kamp, Rachelle J. A.; van Berkel, Henk J. M.; Popeijus, Herman E.; Leppink, Jimmie; Schmidt, Henk G.; Dolmans, Diana H. J. M. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2014
Even though peer process feedback is an often used tool to enhance the effectiveness of collaborative learning environments like PBL, the conditions under which it is best facilitated still need to be investigated. Therefore, this study investigated the effects of individual versus shared reflection and goal setting on students' individual…

Hommes, J.; Van den Bossche, P.; de Grave, W.; Bos, G.; Schuwirth, L.; Scherpbier, A. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2014
Little is known how time influences collaborative learning groups in medical education. Therefore a thorough exploration of the development of learning processes over time was undertaken in an undergraduate PBL curriculum over 18 months. A mixed-methods triangulation design was used. First, the quantitative study measured how various learning…

Choo, Serene S. Y.; Rotgans, Jerome I.; Yew, Elaine H. J.; Schmidt, Henk G. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2011
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of worksheets as a scaffolding tool on students' learning achievement in a problem-based learning (PBL) environment. Seventeen PBL classes (N = 241) were randomly assigned to two experimental groups--one with a worksheet provided and the other without. Students' learning of the topic at hand…

Yew, Elaine H. J.; Schmidt, Henk G. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2009
The goal of this study was to increase our understanding of the learning-oriented verbal interactions taking place between students during the problem-based learning (PBL) cycle. The verbal interactions of one PBL group of five students throughout an entire PBL cycle were recorded in this data-intensive case study. The verbatim transcript…

Loyens, Sofie M. M.; Rikers, Remy M. J. P.; Schmidt, Henk G. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2006
This study investigated students' conceptions of constructivist learning activities in a problem-based learning (PBL) and a traditional curriculum. We examined whether students who have chosen for a problem-based curriculum have different conceptions of constructivist assumptions compared to students who have chosen to be enrolled in a…
