PBL in the news yet again
Thanks to Elaine Craft of South Carolina Advanced Technological Education (SCATE), for sending the following article out. We are making a difference with PBL – I hope this will encourage you to go further with a class you are using PBL in now and /or encourage you to transform another class – maybe recruit traditional colleagues to try PBL – maybe apply for an innovative grant! STEM students need PBL.
Why Science Majors Change Their Minds…
Yes, this is a great article and it shows that PBL is going “mainstream” – at least in the media. However, they didn’t mention the NSF ATE and its great support of Problem- based learning. Letter to the editor anyone? If someone else writes one, I’ll be sure to check every day to see if it’s printed.
