4. Why ICT? You : What is wrong with PBL, why ICT?

5. What is Problem Based Learning ? Problem Small-group discussion Learning goals Checking the result Self-study You : What is wrong with this picture?

6. What is Problem Based Learning ? Problem Small-group discussion Learning goals Checking the result Self-study You : What is wrong with this picture?

7. Polaris project: Problems self-study - high search time - poor relevancy - poor quality students become frustrated with looking for information in library

8. Problems self-study - uncomfortable with report of results - uncertainty about “the truth” Social science: students become frustrated with looking for information in library You : Solutions??

9. Solutions 1. Supply necessary literature-references. - supply necessary, no classification - supply necessary, classification Intrusion on self-directed learning

10. 1. clarifying concepts Intrusion on self-directed learning Necessary literature references 2. defining the problem 3. brainstorming 4. systematic classification 5. formulating learning goals - - - - - - - -

11. 6. Learner directed self-study 7. Check results with learning goals Intrusion on self-directed learning Necessary literature references - -

12. Solutions 2. Supply too many literature-references. - supply too many, no classification - supply too many, classification grain problem

13. Grain problem point of reference: - amount of literature - amount of time Students study for about 6-8 hours “ two articles”-limit.

14. Grain problem Selection criteria: not necessarily: - answering learning goals - understanding the subject - language - amount of pages - title - face validity of content - ease of availability

15. Solutions 3. Resource Based Learning Learning is: - individually, and - actively, - making meaning - in interaction with vast amounts of different resources.

16. Promises of RBL - individual learner has full ownership - better criteria for selecting relevant info - direct availability of vast amounts of info - learning goals are decisive

17. Threats of RBL RBL without support (i.e., internet): - “information gaze” - “butterfly defect” (Salomon, 1998) - less learner directedness information search information discovery

18. RBL and its challenge challenge: and many resources have to be allowed, to support the construction of meaning for which they have not been created initially, how to support a naive learner? When the intent of a user is not known You : how to support a naive learner?
