Effectiveness of problem based learning implementation

Problem based learning (PBL) exercises have been proven to be an effective teaching method for preparing the students as work ready graduates. Students work on a real world industry based problem of relevant discipline. It also help students to improve their capability of critical analysis. PBL has been adopted in educational practise in many disciplines. In this paper, we explore the various existing PBL practices, develop, implement a model and analyse the effectiveness of the implementation. This paper explains few exemplars of PBL, their implementation method and analysis of students’ feedback. Paper concludes with the direction of our future work.Problem based learning (PBL) exercises have been proven to be an effective teaching method for preparing the students as work ready graduates.
