Problem Based and Project Based Learning (PBL) has come a long way. Following the success of PBL curricula in McMaster, Canada, Maastricht, the Netherlands and Roskilde and Aalborg University, Denmark, a great many institutes in higher education have introduced some form of PBL. The resulting diversity of PBL varieties provides ample opportunities for research focussing on practice.
The proceedings of IRSPBL cover a number of relevant PBL topics such as assessment, learning outcomes, students’ engagement, management of change, curriculum and course design, PBL models, PBL application, ICT, professional development. This book represents some of the newest results from research on PBL in these different areas.
