Riassunto

According to the Office of Educational Research and Improvement, problem-based learning is a strategy choice for workplace trainers, instructional designers and educators because "in a society where change is constant and teamwork is a way of life at work, the lessons learned through involvement in problem-based learning are essential for students' career development."In this book, the characteristics of problem-based learning are explained and the theories that support problem-based learning are explored. Through a faculty mentoring project, the research conducted at a community college found significant improvement in student engagement and learning with a diverse population of students.Educators will enjoy and apply the course case studies and instructional activities. Faculty leaders and administrators will be inspired by concepts of moving faculty and students toward a learner-centered organization.There is an emphasis on the need to prepare the future workforce to meet the challenges of a global economy.
