Title: | Problem-based learning : a teaching method to enhance learning experience for students in service-learning | Authors: | Tam, WC Lau, CK Ngai, G Yuen, WW Chan, ATS Lu, Q Chan, SCF |
Issue Date: | 2014 | Source: | Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Service-Learning, Nov 20-21, 2014, Hong Kong, p. 271-279 | Abstract: | This paper compares and contrasts lecture-based learning (LBL) and problem-based learning (PBL) as a teaching method for international service-learning projects. We use surveys and interviews in the context of a robotics workshop in Myanmar, organized as an international service project, to uncover uncertainties and limitations associated with LBL. Our results suggest that LBL is not a suitable teaching method for service-learning settings, while PBL is more feasible and effective. We elaborate on the teaching process and implementation, and describe benefits on students’ learning outcomes. | Keywords: | International service-learning Problem-based learning Robotics |
