Peer reviewedBertel, Lykke Brogaard; Winther, Maiken; Routhe, Henrik Worm; Kolmos, Anette – International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education, 2022
Purpose: Problem-based learning (PBL) has been suggested as an approach to education for sustainable development (ESD); however, the integration of interdisciplinarity is continuously challenged as it requires transfer and collaboration across disciplinary boundaries, as well as integration into an often already-overflowing curriculum. Even in…

Aparicio, Carlos Estuardo; Hinojosa, Karen; Casillas Zapata, Amanda Melissa – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2020
Problem-based learning is one of the most useful resources in education with the potential to effect real world change. The evident benefits of PBL in the face of the challenges that Latin America presently encounters have led many institutions to consider the adoption of PBL curricula. However, PBL implementation has its own set of difficulties.…

Newhouse, Christopher Paul – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2017
The well-being of modern economies and societies is increasingly requiring citizens to possess capabilities in integrating knowledge and skills in science, technology, engineering and science to solve problems. However, by the end of schooling, the majority of Australian students show little interest in these discipline areas and have no plans to…

Jamil, Faiza M.; Linder, Sandra M.; Stegelin, Dolores A. – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2018
The success of new pedagogies depends on teachers' beliefs about what they entail, and the promises and challenges they hold. This study uses a mixed-methods approach to understand the beliefs of early childhood teachers who attended a professional development conference on STEAM teaching, an emerging approach that combine STEM disciplines and the…

Noble, Elizabeth; Ferris, Kaitlyn A.; LaForce, Melanie; Zuo, Huifang – European Journal of STEM Education, 2020
Background: Inclusive STEM high schools employ a variety of instructional strategies, including PBL (problem and/or project-based learning) experiences, with the goals of building students' 21st century skills, facilitating long-term academic success, and encouraging pursuit of STEM careers. PBL approaches are central to the goals of inclusive…

Ark, Thomas J. Vander; Liebtag, Emily; McClennen, Nate – ASCD, 2020
"Place: it's where we're from; it's where we're going. . . . It asks for our attention and care. If we pay attention, place has much to teach us." With this belief as a foundation, "The Power of Place" offers a comprehensive and compelling case for making communities the locus of learning for students of all ages and…

Lloyd, Molly – ProQuest LLC, 2018
"Place-based education" refers to pedagogy that connects student learning with the local environment and students' lives. Educators' preoccupation with standardized test scores have increased the disconnect between formal education and student's life experiences. Schools have developed systems of learning in isolated subjects through…

Savin-Baden, Maggi – Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-based Learning, 2016
There has been much recent discussion about student engagement in higher education, and in the last few years a number of authors have undertaken extensive international research on the topic, which has been summarized in a number of literature reviews. However, to date, there has been relatively little in-depth exploration of student engagement…

McCrum, Daniel Patrick – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2017
For a structural engineer, effective communication and interaction with architects cannot be underestimated as a key skill to success throughout their professional career. Structural engineers and architects have to share a common language and understanding of each other in order to achieve the most desirable architectural and structural designs.…
