Problem-Based Learning, Its Usability and Critical View as Educational Learning Tools
Abstract
So far the learning process that takes place in several countries, including developed countries, is still dominated by a paradigm which states that knowledge is a set of facts that must be memorized. In addition, the classroom situation is still largely focused on the teacher as the main source of knowledge based on the curriculum. In order to develop a learning system, observation analysis is needed based on the sources of published journal articles. One of the topics we raised in this case was Problem-Based Learning (PBL). The results of the Analysis Review found that Problem-Based Learning is a learning approach that uses real world problems as a context for students to learn about critical thinking and problem solving skills, as well as to obtain essential knowledge and concepts from the subject matter. Problem-based learning is used to stimulate high-level thinking in problem-oriented situations, including learning how to learn.
