What is Problem-Based Learning? PBL prepares students to think critically and analytically, and to find and use appropriate learning resources. PBL is a learning approach that challenges students to “learn to learn,” working cooperatively in groups to seek solutions to real world problems.

“The principal idea behind PBL is that the starting point for learning should be a problem, a query, or a puzzle that the learner wishes to solve.” Boud (1985)

Home groups 1.Please form groups of three or four participants. 2.Each group should have one representative from physics, chemistry, biology, and mathematics, to the extent possible. 3.As a home group, please work through the activities on the next seven slides

Individual “Prewriting” Exercise After reviewing the letter, take a few minutes to write about the central problems facing Secretary Norton, and why the problem is so critical now. Please write your response on page 2, questions 1 & 3 of “The Wars of the West” handout.

Group Discussion Please discuss the letter in your groups, and share your ideas about the central problems facing Secretary Norton and the critical nature of the crisis. (15 minutes)

Report Out (Whole ‘Class’) List the central problems facing Secretary Norton, as identified by your group:

Stakeholders??? In your groups, identify major stakeholder groups – individuals or groups who are potentially affected by the dispute over Colorado River water allocation. (15 minutes)

Report Out (Whole ‘Class’) Stakeholders identified by groups:

Stakeholder Groups and the Crisis in Colorado River Water 1.Pick the most important four stakeholders. 2.Each member of the home group should select one stakeholder to represent. 3.Stakeholder groups should form (a new grouping of participants) 4.Discuss what you already know about the crisis and how it affects your stakeholder group.

Learning Issues learning issues The concept of learning issues is central to PBL. It encourages students to think for themselves about what they know and what they don’t know about an issue. It helps identify questions for further research. On page 3 of the handout, list learning issues for your stakeholder group…..

Stakeholder Groups and the Crisis in Colorado River Water You may end here if you wish, or adjourn to a nearby computer to begin researching the learning issues.

An Opportunity for Stakeholders! Secretary Norton has announced that she will meet with all interested stakeholder groups. Your group will be given 5 minutes to present your most persuasive argument for your position about your rights to the Colorado River water. Plan your strategy!

Next Stage Challenge students to: Learn all content from each stakeholder group. Integrate and prioritize the issues related to the decisions that must be made with respect to the Colorado River water.
