Davidsen, Jacob; Larsen, Dorthe Vinther; Paulsen, Lucas; Rasmussen, Sten – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2022
In this paper, we present and discuss an explorative study on the use of a social 360° virtual reality (360VR) for supporting case-based Problem Based Learning (case-PBL) in clinical medical education. In the context of case-PBL, we argue that our social 360VR learning space extends the design and application of cases in medical education by…

García-Merino, José Domingo; Urionabarrenetxea, Sara; Fernández-Sainz, Ana – Higher Education Research and Development, 2020
This article identifies the profiles of students whose performance is improved by the PBL method, and the influence of certain student-dependent factors that lead to improvement. Effects on performance vary from one student to another, so we distinguish between outcomes among low-performing, average-performing, and high-performing students. To…

Stamou, Anastasios; Noutsopoulos, Constantinos; Kuhlmann, Anna; Rutschmann, Peter – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2020
We present a teaching methodology to answer the question 'How can we link teaching with research in our engineering courses?' Due to the combination of hybrid Problem Based Learning with Research Tutored/Oriented Teaching, the methodology enables the students to acquire the skills of 'problem solving', 'working in teams', 'analytic', 'written…
