The whole art of teaching is only the art of
awakening the natural curiosity of young minds for
the purpose of satisfying it afterwards (France in
Barell, 2003)
Introduction

Child-centered education stresses the need for taking
care of the child, his/her growth and development.
It requires “individualization” of approach.
The child is an agent in his/her own learning. It
means that curriculum must be thought in terms of
activities and experiences which appeal most to the
child.
Introduction

Zulueta (2009) stressed that with some changes of
emphasis on educational goals and objectives,
The focus on the child as the important variable in
the educational process,
The concept of teaching method has been diversified
and broadened and new approaches/strategies and
other instructional practices came about purportedly
premised to enhance the teaching-learning process.
Discussion:

Both teaching method and an approach to the
curriculum.
The Problem-Based Learning
12.
It consists of:
The Problem-Based Learning
Carefully-designed problems that challenge students to use
problem solving techniques.
Self-directed learning strategies
Team participation skills, and
Disciplinary knowledge (Center for Research on Learning and
Teaching, 2011).
13.
The Problem-Based Learning
It is always active and usually (but not necessarily) a
collaborative or a cooperative process.
Blumenfeld et al. (in Good and Brophy, 2003) – a
comprehensive approach to classroom teaching and
learning that incorporates most of these principles for
capitalizing on students’ intrinsic motivation.

The Problem-Based Learning
Within this framework, students pursue solutions to
authentic problems by asking and refining questions,
Debating ideas,
Making predictions,
Designing plans or experiments,
15.
The Problem-Based Learning
Collecting and analyzing data,
Drawing conclusions,
Communicating their ideas and findings to others,
Asking new questions,
And creating products
16.
When students are exposed into problem-based
learning, they tend to use their critical thinking skills
and become more reflective.
17.
In this case, they are able to develop their higher order
thinking skills which are needed in attacking/solving
similar problems in the future.

PBL is anchored on solving problems.
WRITING PBL PROBLEMS
1. Select the objectives we want our students to accomplish.
2. Create a story line that will appeal to our learners and
quickly interest them in accomplishing the learning
objectives.

PBL is anchored on solving problems.
WRITING PBL PROBLEMS
3. Provide story lines that will prompt their curiosity
about objectives.
4. Read the story aloud or preview it before
introducing it to the class.
