"Teachers looking for a concise guide to implementing problem-based learning in math and science classrooms: this book is for you!"
"The purpose of problem-based learning is to emphasize meaning-making over fact collecting. With this method, Diane Ronis has written a book well-equipped to produce self-motivated and independent lifelong learners!"
"The guidelines on using and assessing projects, as well as the ready-to-use samples, make this a worthwhile resource."
There are some nice ideas here to be used with teachers on the Additional Diploma in Teaching Maths course. Problem-based learning can generate a lot more high order thinking from students and can help to put into context some of the maths and science topics which otherwise would be quite removed.
The criteria of the book is incredible and would be better suited for an integrated curriculum class or Problem-Based/Project-Based Learning class. Hoping to be able to use it in the future.
