A lesson in teaching, starring you.

The article offers information on the Problem-Based Learning Project for Teachers, a National Science Foundation-funded program at Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan. It mentions that the participants use problem-based learning as an analytic strategy for understanding and solving problems. A systematic approach is being provided by problem-based learning wherein individuals will learn to identify what they know or need to know, then develop hypothesis and carry out research about solutions as they construct new ideas about the real-world problem. To position teachers as reflective practitioners who examine a variety of data about the impact of their practice on the learning of the student is a key principle that guides the design of the Problem-Based Learning Project.
