Sequence: PBL Why is Sky Blue

Sequence Information
Sequence: PBL Why is Sky Blue
Description:
The starting point for learning in problem-based learning is a complex problem, query or puzzle that the learner wishes to solve (Boud, 1995) rather than with exposition of disciplinary knowledge. With PBL, acquired knowledge arises from work on the problem rather than the normal approach where it is assumed that students have to have the knowledge required before they can start work on the problem (Ross, 1998).  Students are moved towards the acquisition of knowledge and skills through a staged sequence presented in an authentic context, together with associated learning materials and support from tutors (Boud & Feletti, 1998).
