Study Notes

Camp, Kaar, Molen & Schmidt (2014) Model

The model proposes a seven-jump approach to scaffolding the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) process.
The seven jumps are: Clarifying Unfamiliar Terms, Problem Definition, Brainstorm, Analyzing the Problem, Formulating Learning Goals, Self-Study, and Reporting.

Clarifying Unfamiliar Terms

The teacher facilitates group members to understand unclear terms and concepts in the problem description.

Problem Definition

The group defines the problem in the form of one or more questions.
The teacher stimulates group members to formulate possible problem definitions.

Brainstorm

The group generates as many explanations, ideas, and hypotheses as possible without critical analysis.
The teacher encourages each member to contribute and summarizes the ideas at the end.

Analyzing the Problem

The group discusses and analyzes the explanations and hypotheses in depth.
The teacher ensures that all points are discussed and stimulates group members to promote depth in the discussion.

Formulating Learning Goals

The group formulates learning goals based on contradictions, obscurities, and ambiguities from the problem analysis.
The teacher ensures that all obscurities and contradictions are converted into learning goals.

Self-Study

Group members search for relevant literature to answer the learning goals questions.
The teacher stimulates group members to find answers from relevant literature.

Reporting

Group members report their findings in the next tutorial meeting.
The teacher ensures that the group has a conclusion of each learning goal with a summary.

Hmelo-Silver (2004) and PBL Initiative

Hmelo-Silver (2004) described PBL as a collaborative learning approach where students identify what they need to learn to solve a problem.
The PBL Initiative describes PBL as a learner-centered approach that promotes learner motivation, ownership, and collaboration.

Barrows (1989) Model

The Barrows model involves setting the climate, defining the problem, and summarizing the discussion under headings.
Students using this model may summarize their discussion under these headings on a shared learning environment.
