Represents simple recall & basic understanding of knowledge for its own sake.
Students gather and store bits of knowledge and information.
Students are primarily expected to remember or understand this acquired knowledge.

Problem-based Learning
"an instructional strategy in which students confront contextualized, ill-structured problems and strive to find meaningful solutions."
Problem-based learning has been described as:
![Page 20: Next Generation Learning Network](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56812aba550346895d8e7e17/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Modeling the PBL Process
We are teachers participating in a grant. This grant requires participating teachers to create and use problem-based learning to assist in teaching the standards-based curriculum. Since teachers will be sharing lesson plans with each other, it is important that all teachers have the same understanding of problem-based learning and its process. Let’s come up with an agreed upon definition and process for problem-based learning.
The Problem:

Problem-based Learning Process
What do we already know about PBL?
![Page 22: Next Generation Learning Network](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56812aba550346895d8e7e17/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Problem-based Learning Process
What do we need to know about PBL in order for us to create lesson plans and implement
them in our classrooms?
![Page 23: Next Generation Learning Network](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56812aba550346895d8e7e17/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Problem-based Learning Process
Let’s divide up the research tasks.
After you have your topic, groups need to:
• Divide up the resources to explore
• Compare what you come up with on the topic
• Collaborate on what you will present to the class
![Page 24: Next Generation Learning Network](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56812aba550346895d8e7e17/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Problem-based Learning Process
What did we find out?Is there anything we still need
to know?If there is, let’s divide up the tasks again.
If there isn’t, let’s finalize our solution to present
Let’s share information.
![Page 25: Next Generation Learning Network](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56812aba550346895d8e7e17/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Problem-based Learning Process
Let’s review what we just did.
![Page 26: Next Generation Learning Network](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56812aba550346895d8e7e17/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Ill-structured problem: a “messy problem”that could have multiple paths leading to the same solution or the problem could have multiple solutions
Scenario: this is the setting for the problem
26
Reviewing our Process
1. Present the problem
![Page 27: Next Generation Learning Network](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56812aba550346895d8e7e17/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Brainstorm all that is known that will help solve the problem and formulate hypotheses
27
2. What do we know?
Identify learning needs by making a list of things needed to know in order to solve the problem
3. What do we need to know?
Divide the “need to knows” among the group members
4. What do we do now?
Reviewing our Process
![Page 28: Next Generation Learning Network](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56812aba550346895d8e7e17/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

2. What do we know?
3. What do we need to know?
4. What do we do now?
Share research findings with the group, then revisit steps 2-4:
5. Group Meetings to share information
Continue this process until the group arrives at a solution
Present the solution

Making the Real World Connections
Go into the Teacher Portal in BEEP
Select Online Textbooks on the right side
Select one of your Algebra textbooks
Each group member should select one benchmark from the page you are given.
In the textbook, locate the lesson(s) that teach this benchmark and look how it is currently being taught.

Making the Real World Connections
Does your textbook ask students to apply the content in a real world context?
Look at the list of resources on the wiki page. Locate and collect resources that will help support teaching these benchmarks using real world connections.
Put your group’s findings on a Word document and email them to Randy Stephen.
Report your findings to the class.32

Creating the Lesson Plan
From the website, download the problem-based lesson plan template.
Think about whether you will write your own lesson plan or whether you will collaborate with another teacher on two lesson plans.

Creating the Lesson Plan
Start with a benchmark.
Determine how learning will be assessed.
Create an ill-structured problem/scenario that connects the benchmark to the student in a real world context.
Design the lesson plan, including how students will share their solution to the problem.
