This web site contains a growing collection of field-tested problem-based learning (PBL) activities for introductory physics classes. The PBL method challenges students to solve real-world problems by first determining questions to be answered, sifting through given information to separate useful from irrelevant data, and collaborating to apply physics in finding solutions. The goal of this collection is to help faculty overcome the difficulties in finding or creating good problems. It includes background and references on the problem-based approach and information about how it is best implemented in a class. Each problem includes a brief introduction and materials for students and instructors.
Instructors interested in contributing PBL problems are strongly encouraged to do so through this site in the section Submit a Problem. **NOTE** Click on "English" to enter the website from the home page.
