Workshops being offered

Creating Community in the PBL Classroom
David Chapman (Samford University)

The PBL classroom requires students to move from passive consumers of knowledge to active participants in knowledge making.  This session will provide experience in using a variety of methods to create classroom communities and to extend the classroom into the community, including problem-solving scenarios, video, scientific instruments, and visualization activities.  Workshop will use a “hands on” approach to using these methods.  We will also discuss ways to facilitate the development of community in the classroom and to cope with students who resist such interactions.

Taking PBL to School
Patricia A. Marsteller, Jordan Rose (Emory University)

The primary goals of Problems and Research to Integrate Science and Mathematics (PRISM) are to transform K-16 science education by: 1) enhancing the teaching, communication, and research-dissemination skills of future faculty; 2) building sustainable university-community partnerships in which Emory students can be engaged; 3) enhancing teacher content knowledge and pedagogy skills; and 4) providing teachers and graduate students with opportunities and skills to take leadership roles in producing knowledge about pedagogical practice and to act as change agents within the K-16 educational system. In this workshop, we will introduce the PBL immersion case, present the syllabus and materials used to teach PBL case writing, and example cases from science, mathematics and PBL across the curriculum units.

Faculty development formats to introduce teachers to PBL
Peter Bouhuys (Maastricht University) and Hortensia Jiménez Díaz (Tecnológico de Monterrey)

PBL is a complex educational strategy. In order to implement this approach both faculty and students need preparation in order to be successful. In this workshop various formats will be demonstrated and participants are invited to develop their own ideas on how to introduce PBL to teachers.

Innovative Tools and Techniques to Enhance Creativity in your PBL Program: Connecting Design Thinking with Teaching and Learning
Reinhold Steinbeck (Stanford University), Dan Gilbert (Omaha Science Media Project)

Building on the work of globally distributed and place-based learning teams at Stanford University, participants in this workshop will learn about "Design Thinking", a user-centered and team-based approach to developing innovative ideas. We will gain hands-on experience with tools and techniques that teaching teams and students can use to build creative confidence. Participants will also generate specific ideas to implement in their PBL courses and programs at their home institutions.

Resolução de Problemas e pedagogia de projetos: a experiência da USP Leste
Ulisses F. Araújo, Ricardo Ricci Uvinha e Diamantino Pereira (USP Leste)

A USP Leste, ao aliar os processos de ensino e de aprendizagem baseados em PBL (ABP) à Pedagogia de Projetos, por meio da criação de um espaço obrigatório no currículo de seus 10 cursos de graduação, busca criar um ambiente acadêmico rico e inovador, que atenda aos anseios e interesses de seus estudantes e da sociedade em geral. Este workshop fará com que os participantes experienciem processos semelhantes aos vividos pelos estudantes da USP Leste em projetos de resolução de problemas vinculados às comunidades do entorno da universidade.

Assessment in Problem-based learning
Glen O’Grady (Republic Polytechnic de Singapore)

PBL as both an educational  philosophy and a pedagogical practice demands a different approach to assessment than what is commonly practiced in schools and Universities. This workshop explores the use of “holistic assessment” in measuring and fostering learning in PBL. The workshop will be made up of six activities that aim to help participants:
· Understand the critical role assessment plays in PBL.
· Become aware of methods of assessment that can be used n PBL.
· How to formulate grades (and other feedback) in a manner that is consistent with the philosophy of PBL.

The Group from Hell: Strategies for Resolving Conflicts in PBL Groups
George Watson e Mark Serva (University of Delaware)

When students work together in PBL groups, conflict is inevitable, even when the course instructor has given careful attention to establishing groups and monitoring their function. While conflict can be beneficial to group function, too often it results in poor performance, frustration with the PBL process, and stress (for both students and instructors).
In this highly interactive session, we will use case studies, written by experienced PBL faculty about real occurrences of group conflict in their classrooms, to launch discussion and analysis of strategies that people use to interact with one another in groups, and how these can lead to conflict. Participants will work together to brainstorm ‘win-win’ type resolutions for these conflict scenarios.
