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.
