Writing Effective Problem-Based Materials “Good teaching is more a giving of right questions than a giving of right answers.” -- Josef Albers

Bloom’s Knowledge Level Memory: Recall of factual information. Examples:Who is _____? When was _____? Describe _____. How did _____?

Bloom’s Comprehension Level Understanding; Interpretation. Examples: Demonstrate the meaning of _____. Give an example of _____. Translate that idea into everyday terms.

Bloom’s Application Level Apply learning to new situation; Generalization. Examples: Apply the formula to this problem. Teach your friend the meaning of ____.

Bloom’s Analysis Level Break down material and distinguish parts, relation to whole. Examples: Distinguish facts from unsupportable assumptions. Identify relevant issues in a problem.

Bloom’s Synthesis Level Put together elements to form a new whole. Examples: Design a web site for your project. Write a play or story that illustrates ___. What is the solution to the problem?

Bloom’s Evaluation Level Critique; Evaluate. Examples: Assess a decision of the Supreme Court in light of _____. Write a critique of a scientific theory. What are its strengths & weaknesses?

Bloom’s Cognitive Levels Evaluation – make a criteria-based judgment Synthesis – produce new product from parts Analysis – break material into parts Application – apply concept to new situation Comprehension – explain, interpret Knowledge – remember facts, concepts

Important Considerations in Writing Problems Level of course & maturity of students Role of problem in accomplishing course objectives Time frame Staging Availability & access to resources Use of prompting questions

Step One: Identify Learning Objectives Think of a learning objective in your course. What kind of problem or activity do you usually assign? Typical end-of-chapter problem? A reading?

Step Two: Identify Real World Context Name a realistic application of the concept. Outline a scenario. Ideas... Add story-telling to end-of-chapter problem. Add motivation by requiring students to do research. Include decision-making.

Step Three: Draft the Problem Outline the problem. What will be on the first page? Suggestions … 1. Multi-page, multi-stage construction 2. Not all info in texts (must do research) 3. Consensus building, reaching conclusions, and making judgments
