Preparing your students for Problem Based Learning

Damian Keil, Senior Lecturer in Exercise and Sports Science at MMU, has been using Problem Based Learning, or PBL, for a number of years. We recently made a film with Damian for the Good Practice Exchange, featuring interviews and thoughts of students and staff involved with the initiative to make learning active. Implementing PBL can be challenging, as it requires a step change for staff, but also major shift in the the expectations of students of their educational experience. Here, Damian writes about his methods for preparing students to get the most of of Problem Based learning.
