This page contains an overview of the Problem-Based Learning pedagogical approach, an instructional method in which authentic problems are used as the basis for student activities. The history and fundamental principles of the PBL method are discussed, with links provided to additional online resources.
This page is part of a larger PBL collection, which includes a set of of field-tested activities for introductory physics classes. SEE RELATED ITEMS BELOW for a link to the full collection.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
Topic: Dynamics: Forces and Motion
Unit Title: Newton's First Law & Inertia Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is an instructional method that presents authentic, life-like situations to engage students in learning. Click here to read more about the pedagogical basis of PBL and how to implement it in the physics classroom. This site also features several PBL scenarios developed for introductory physics students (many are appropriate for high school). Link to Unit:
