"Within the framework of a Problem-Based Learning approach a simplified model for inquiry, called FISh, has been developed (Nerantzi and Uhlin, 2012). We suggest the use of FISh when working collaboratively with inquiry into scenarios in each topic. Even if you learn autonomously or with a learning buddy, FISh might help you as a structure for your learning process. However, remember that learning is messy and following or restricting yourself to a linear process might not work and can be frustrating at times." Via Anne Whaits

I have registered for The Open Learning Network MOOC #OLN151 which has commenced today, 14 April. The design of this open course uses a wonderfully simplified approach to PBL inquiry called FISh (Nerantzi and Uhlin, 2012). Take a look a the #OLN151 webpage to read about the three step FISh approach - FOCUS, INVESTIGATE and SHARE - each step driven by guiding questions. Really nice approach to apply in your own learning design for students.
"Step 1: Focus What do I/we see? How do I/we understand what we see? What do I/we need to find out more about? Specify learning issues/intended learning outcomes!
Step 2: Investigate How and where am I/are we going to find answers? What will I do/who will do what and by when? What main findings and solutions do I/we propose?
Step 3: Share How am I/are we going to present my/our findings? What do I/we want to share with the community? How can I/we provide feedback to others? What reflections do I have about my learning (and working with others)?" |

When you read or hear the words PBL do you think Problem-Based Learning or Project-Based Learning? This post discusses problem-based learning, and provides a historical background before discussing defining it. .The post then compares problem-based learning with project-based, inquiry-based and case-based learning before moving on to provide ten recommendations. Three are below. * Clearly define your purpose for doing problem-based learning * Develop ill-structured problems * Emphasize depth over breadth To learn more about these three recommendations and view the other seven click through to the post. You may find that problem-based learning is already being used do some degree with your learners, and this post may provide some ideas on how to move into this direction more efficiently.
