Orientation to the PBL Clearinghouse: An Electronic Peer-Reviewed Publication Institute for Transforming Undergraduate Education University of Delaware

Characteristics of Good PBL Problems Relate to real-world, motivate students Require decision-making or judgements Multi-page, multi-stage Designed for group-solving Initial questions open-ended, encourages discussion Incorporates course content objectives Challenges to higher-order thinking

But…where are the problems? Typical end-of-chapter problems can be solved by rote memorization, pattern-match, and plug-and-chug techniques Good problems should require students to make assumptions and estimates, develop models, and work through the model. A source of problems outside the commercial texts needs to be developed.

PBL Clearinghouse An online database of PBL articles and problems. All material is peer-reviewed by PBL practitioners for content and pedagogy. All problems are supported by learning objectives and resources, teaching and assessment notes. Holdings are searchable by author, discipline, keywords, or full text. Fully electronic submission, review, and publication cycle. Controlled access by free user subscription, students excluded.
