Lesson 2: Problem-Based Learning and Project-Based Learning

Objectives
 Recognize the benefits of project based and problem based learning in their lives
 Know the role of technology and productivity tools in implementing problem based and
project based learning.
 Analyze and find the difference and similarities between problem based and project
based learning

Nature of Problem-Based Learning


Problem-based learning is an approach that involves a process of inquiry and solving open-
ended questions that serve as the main problem that the learners will work on.

Nature of Problem-Based Learning


Ali (2019) described PBL as a process that is used to identify problems with a scenario to
increase knowledge and understanding. Π In her article, she proposed the following five
principles of PBL that may be considered by teachers in planning or using the approach:

Five principles of PBL


1.It is a power of independent and self-directed learning.
2. Learning happens in a group and teacher is a facilitator.
3. All groups have to participate equally.
4. Students' learn about motivation, teamwork, problem-solving and engagement with the task
5. Materials such as data, photographs, articles, can be used to solve the problem.

Lo (2009, p. 208) proposed a six-stage process used in the adoption of the online PBL:

6 stage process used in the adoption of the online PBL


1. Identifying the problem
2. Brainstorming
3. Collecting and analyzing the information
4. Synthesizing information
5. Co-building knowledge
6. Refining the outcomes
Benefits of Problem-Based Learning
positive impacts of PBL on learners as they engage in the process. Among these are the
following:

Benefits of Problem-Based Learning


(Ghufron & Ermawati, 2018, p. 666-in n EFL writing class)

1. Promotes self-confidence and motivation


2. Reduces students' nervousness during the learning process
3. Increases students' responsibility in learning
4. Makes students easily learn the material through sharing of ideas
5. Promotes problem-solving skills
6. Promotes self-directed learning
7. Promotes active learning
8. Makes students explore many learning resources
9. Makes students develop positive attitude towards learning

Benefits of Problem-Based Learning


For Baresh, Ali, & Darmi, 2019-EFL students:
• Enhances Fluences in communications
• Improves grammar
• Increases comprehension
• Enhances self-confidence
• Increases range of vocabulary

Benefits of Problem-Based Learning


For English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students, PBL:
 Enhances fluency in communication
 Improves grammar
 Increases comprehension
 Enhances good pronunciations and intonations
 Enhances self-confidence
 Increases range of vocabulary

Role of Technology
Technology integrated in the PBL Activity

As the learners embark on an open-ended question collaboratively, there are a number of free
online tools that they can use from the commencement of the task to its completion especially
that some of the group tasks will be done outside the regular class hours.

Technology integrated in the PBL Activity

These may facilitate and enhance PBL activities (Tambouris et al, 2012) in its different stages.

Web 2.0 technologies


are characterized by collaboration, sharing and networking.

WWW
has opportunities for PBL that can be utilized by the learners to accomplish their task.

Productivity tools
Such as those for writing, presentations, spreadsheets, calendars, organizers, citations and
others are also available to assist learners and teachers in accomplishing required tasks and
outputs from a PBL activity

Nature of Project-Based Learning/Project Based Approach

Project-Based Learning/Project Based Approach

 evolved as a teaching method that engages learners in a series of planned tasks


 Student-Centered
 This method is based on John Dewey's principles "Learning by doing "

Project-Based Learning/Project Based Approach


 and Vygotsky's constructivist theory of learning
 A collaborative learning activity where learners work on an authentic task guided by an
open-ended question

Past and more recent researches have proven PrBL to be beneficial in the development of
various skills

Researches:
1. Research methodology skills (Tiwari, Arya, & Bansal, 2017).
2. Oral communicative competence (Bakar, Noordin, & Rali, 2019).
3. Development of life skills (Wurdinger & Qureshi, 2015).

CONCLUSION

Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Project-Based Learning (PjBL) are effective approaches that
promote deep learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. By presenting learners with
real-world problems or projects, educators can foster engagement, autonomy, and
collaboration. These approaches prepare learners for future challenges and careers, and
educators should consider integrating PBL and PjBL into their teaching practices.
