Learning Just in Time: Project Based Learning at SAE AustraliaLearningandTeaching
This document discusses the implementation and results of project-based learning (PBL) at SAE Australia. Some key points:
1) SAE introduced new PBL-focused programs in 2013 which included "Studio" modules. This led to fail rates nearly halving and retention increasing from 25.8% to 54%.
2) PBL requires the right people and faculty training to ensure projects are properly structured and students learn time management.
3) Both students and faculty need support to adjust to PBL's less structured approach, as students expect direct teaching and faculty roles change. Starting PBL earlier and promoting reflection can help with this transition.
Project-based learning (PBL) is an instructional approach that engages students in learning essential knowledge and life-enhancing skills through an extended, student-influenced inquiry process structured around complex, authentic questions and carefully designed products and tasks. PBL is not a new concept, having been developed and advocated by influential educators like Dewey, Piaget, and Papert. PBL focuses on compelling content, supports student autonomy, involves investigative activities over long periods of time, and results in real-world outcomes through complex products. PBL emphasizes depth of understanding, problem-solving skills, student interest, interdisciplinary focus, process and demonstration of learning, original sources, student use of technology, collaboration, and self

Project-based learning assigns long-term student-centered projects that integrate real-world issues and culminate in tangible outcomes. Both approaches emphasize learning as an active process of solving problems in authentic contexts based on theories of situated cognition and constructivism. They position teachers as facilitators rather than solely disseminators of knowledge.
The document provides an overview of problem-based learning (PBL). It defines PBL as an educational approach that uses real-world problems as the stimulus and focus for student learning. Students work collaboratively in small groups to identify what they need to learn and independently research the problem before reapplying their knowledge to find solutions. The key characteristics of PBL are that it starts with an open-ended problem, incorporates self-directed learning, emphasizes critical thinking and problem-solving skills over memorization of facts alone. PBL aims to better prepare students for professional practice through active engagement with authentic problems.
Quality, that complex issue: collaborative design for quality networked learn...Juliana Elisa Raffaghelli
The document discusses research on defining quality in higher education from a networked learning perspective. It describes a teacher-led inquiry process where two professors and instructional support staff collaboratively redesigned an undergraduate course. Through their collaboration and negotiation over 4 months, discussing issues around content, assessments, technologies and more, they were able to expand their individual views of quality teaching and integrate networked learning principles. This mediated process helped move them from outsiders to insiders of a shared, transformative quality perspective for higher education.
This document discusses issues and challenges in implementing problem-based learning (PBL) and its implications for management education. It outlines the rationale for PBL, including preparing students for changing workplace demands. PBL was piloted at a university to address shortcomings in existing education models. The pilot revealed both benefits, such as improved problem-solving skills, and challenges, such as difficulty of some problems. Recommendations include providing more facilitator support and guidance, integrating PBL across disciplines, and giving students a defined role in the process. Ongoing efforts focus on training facilitators and clarifying student responsibilities to fully realize the benefits of PBL.

Team-based learning (TBL) is an instructional strategy that provides students opportunities to apply conceptual knowledge through individual work, teamwork, and feedback. It involves carefully formed student teams, frequent feedback, and engaging in problem-solving activities using course concepts. TBL differs from other methods through its emphasis on student accountability, application of knowledge to specific problems worked on simultaneously by teams, and development of team skills. Critical factors for successful TBL include institutional support, faculty training, student buy-in, and appropriate learning spaces.
