This book is a guide for the development and implementation of
problem-based learning in college-level courses. Written with
usefulness in mind, it provides practical advice from real professors
to real professors, includes examples of PBL in action through every
stage of problem development through implementation, and integrates
cross-disciplinary experiences into the doing of PBL in the college
classroom. Its nuts-and-bolts approach makes it valuable to faculty,
graduate teaching assistants, and faculty development professionals
interested in learning how to do PBL, as well as to those already
using PBL who would like to learn more about what other practitioners
do in their classrooms. Contents include: Why (we) use PBL Changing
the landscape No problems? No problem Controlling chaos in PBL
