FAQ - What resources are there for people developing Problem or Case Based Learning (PBL)?

Answer

Phew. There are a huge number of resources available ranging from workshops and events discussion lists (PBL on JISCmail) and literature. We are currently trying to develop this FAQ and we would appreciate your input if you would like to help! Meanwhile you might like to look at some of the PBL cases developed for the undergraduate Pharmacology programme at McMaster (free PDF available to download).

STOP PRESS!! Please see the special report:

'A pilot systematic review and meta-analysis on the effectiveness of problem based learning', by Mark Newman

It is available to download from PBL report
