Problem-Based Learning is an educational strategy that involves the presentation of significant, complex, and “real-world” problems to students, that are structured in such a way that there is not one specific correct answer or predetermined outcome. In this approach, students work in small groups to negotiate a common understanding of the problem (Merrill, 2001), identify areas that need to be researched, form hypotheses, and fully develop a solution that they can present to others.
