PBL 1

“The emphasis of this educational process is that the content is learned in an integrative way through small-group, self-directed study of a problem with the assistance of a faculty instructor who facilitates learning rather than lecturing”. This definition describes:

a.      Integrative learning model

b.      Facilitated-learning model

c.      Problem-based learning model

d.      Collaborative learning model

2

PBL 1 A

a.      Integrative learning model

b.      Facilitated-learning model

c.      Problem-based learning model

d.      Collaborative learning model

                                             

In the Problem- based learning model the learning is centered on problems and learning how to address them as opposed to discrete, subject related courses. In this case, the educator facilitates the problem-solving  and the learning the ensues.

PBL 2

Which is not an essential element of problem-based learning?

a.      Emphasis on self-directed learning

b.    Ensuring there is a solution to the problem at the end

c.      Students work in small groups to problem solve

d.      Educator acts more like a facilitator than teacher

PBL 2 A

a.      Emphasis on self-directed learning

b.      Ensuring there is a solution to the problem at the end

c.      Students work in small groups to problem solve

d.      Educator acts more like a facilitator than teacher

Problem-based learning revolves around students working in small groups with mostly self-directed learning where the educator acts more as a facilitator. The written problem is a stimulus to allow student engagement in the problem solving process.

PB 3

Which traditional learning theory demonstrates the roots of this type of contextual, problem-based learning model?

a.      Cognitivism

b.      Behaviorism

c.      Constructivism

d.      Humanism

10

PB 3 A

a.      Cognitivism

b.      Behaviorism

c.      Constructivism

d.      Humanism

Constructivism is the theory that learning content within the context of a problem allows the learner to better recall the information when presented with a similar scenario in the future

11

SL 2

The purpose of __________ is to involve students in the community and connect this experience to the learning objectives of a course.

a.      Service learning

b.      Community health learning

c.      Experiential learning

d.      Problem based learning

12

SL 2A

a.      Service learning

b.      Community health learning

c.      Experiential learning

d.      Problem based learning

Service learning helps strengthen students understanding of the communities they are studying and working in, and allows for personal development and a better understanding of social responsibility.

13

PE 2

Underlying effective program evaluation is _______________

a.      Well-designed evaluation questions

b.      Evaluative thinking

c.      Individual reflection

d.      Good statistical data and analysis

14

PE 2 A

Underlying effective program evaluation is _______________

a.      Well-designed evaluation questions

b.      Evaluative thinking

c.      Individual reflection

d.      Good statistical data and analysis

 Evaluative thinking encompasses dialogue, reflection, improvement and learning which helps one think about what results are expected, how the goals can be achieved and what evidence is necessary. Additionally, there is less individual reflection involved and more emphasis on the program as a whole. Good data is necessary but the overarching goal is employing evaluative thinking. 

15

PB 4

Within problem-based learning, is it better for the educator to be more skilled as a facilitator or be subject-matter expertise?

a. Facilitator

b. Subject matter expertise

16

PB 4A

a. Facilitator

b. Subject matter expertise

Facilitator. The training of an educator as a facilitator is the basis for this model HOWEVER this question is still up for debate. While a facilitator role is more practical for this style of learning and supporting the students to work through the problem, a subject matter expert may be better at posing questions at critical moments which positively influences students learning. More research is needed.

17

SL 3

What is considered one of the most valuable resources when planning for service learning?

a.      Money

b.      Number of faculty

c.      Time

d.      Community space to conduct meetings

18

SL 3A

a.      Money

b.      Number of faculty

c.      Time

d.      Community space to conduct meetings

A shared commitment of time is extremely valuable in order to ensure all parties can adequately engage in planning, addressing concerns and allowing for sufficient collaboration between the students and community actors.

19

PE 3

All of the following are reflective of a culture which supports program evaluation except:

a.  A program director implements the recommendations of previous evaluations

b.      Academic deans encouraging the use of evaluation by their faculty

c.   Adequate time and resources are given to all faculty to review, analyze and implement program changes

d.  Program evaluation is only completed if there is enough time at the end of the semester
