, QUESTION 1

Encouraging Critical Thinking through Problem-Based Learning

Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is an instructional method that presents students
with complex, real-world problems that do not have straightforward solutions. This
approach encourages critical thinking by requiring students to engage in deep
analysis, identify underlying issues, and evaluate different perspectives before
arriving at a solution. When students are confronted with a problem, they must
assess the problem's context, gather relevant information, and apply their
knowledge to develop potential solutions. This process promotes critical thinking
as students are required to question assumptions, identify biases, and weigh the
evidence to support their conclusions.

Additionally, PBL fosters critical thinking by allowing students to take ownership of
their learning. Rather than passively receiving information, students must actively
seek out resources, ask probing questions, and continuously reflect on their
understanding of the problem. This self-directed approach encourages students to
think independently and develop a more nuanced understanding of the subject
matter. The iterative nature of problem-solving in PBL, where students revisit and
refine their ideas based on new insights, further deepens their critical thinking skills.

Encouraging Creative Thinking and Developing Teamwork and
Communication Skills through Problem-Based Learning

Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is highly effective in fostering creative thinking,
teamwork, and communication skills. By working on open-ended problems,
students are encouraged to think outside the box and explore innovative solutions.
The lack of a single correct answer in PBL scenarios allows students to experiment
with different ideas, encouraging creative risk-taking and the exploration of multiple
pathways to a solution. This creative process is often enhanced through
brainstorming sessions, where students can generate and share diverse ideas
before narrowing down their approach.

PBL also inherently supports the development of teamwork and communication
skills. As students work in groups to solve problems, they must collaborate, share
responsibilities, and contribute their unique perspectives to the collective effort.
