Introduction
More than just literacy and numeracy abilities are necessary to thrive in the modern world (Bourn, 2018; Care et al., 2016; Lai & Viering, 2012). Indeed, according to Care et al. (2016), essential 21st-century talents include creativity, communication, critical thinking, and problem-solving Problem-Based Learning (PBL), which was first created for medical education (Servant-Miklos, 2019), offers an opportunity to hone the critical abilities listed above. The core knowledge for implementing PBL in online learning environments is provided in this chapter.I provide perspectives based on the original McMaster Philosophy and its application in the fully online education studies programmes at Ontario Tech University.
LEARNING BASED ON PROBLEMS (PBL): PBL is a turning point in modern education, demonstrating to educators that formal education can be more than just memorising information (Servant-Miklos, 2019). A team of creative thinkers at McMaster University took advantage of the chance to update the medical programme and created a special programme that is now a cornerstone of education around the world. The McMaster Philosophy grew through dynamic frameworks into what is known as PBL, building on concepts like system-based courses (Servant- Miklos, 2019). PBL prioritises learning above solving problems (Walsh, 2005). Instead, while interacting with their peers, issues encourage students to use their creative and critical thinking skills. Students are then urged to acquire self-awareness and skills that enable knowledge to be used in flexible and real-world contexts (Neufeld & Barrows, 1974). PBL is defined as “the learning that arises from the process of working toward the understanding or resolution of a problem” by Barrows and Tamblyn (1980). (p. 1).
PBL calls for scaffolding and is analogous to learning to ride a bike. A person learning to ride a bicycle on two wheels typically begins with some additional supports, which are gradually removed to increase the rider’s need for balance. In PBL, a teacher initially supports the process while guiding it, but gradually gives the student more responsibility to achieve learning objectives, necessitating a higher level of self-efficacy.
Learning collaborativelyAlthough PBL can support individual learning circumstances, it is typically a team endeavour (Pease & Kuhn, 2011). Beyond academic studies, working in a team or group is beneficial. Additional advantages of using collaborative learning (Burke, 2011). The four main abilities linked to PBL are as follows:
• OriginalityWhile problem-solving is inherently creative, it may be made more creative by reflecting on each group member’s unique insights. Additionally, investigating the issue can need for using knowledge in ways different from those in which it was first acquired.
• InteractionCommunication is necessary to formulate a cogent response. In PBL, communication has several facets, and various tactics will be visible in various groups.
• Critical analysisWith the support of critical reflection (e.g., what is known and what isn’t, who will carry out particular tasks, why an answer is relevant), collaborative learning enables students to apply findings
• Resolving issuesStudents must consider the issue in depth and work through conflicting viewpoints to arrive at a response or solution.
OVERALL DIRECTIVESA single project or assignment, a whole course, or both may be required to put PBL into reality. The procedure in all scenarios accommodates a wide range of abilities, from technical to interpersonal. Because of the independent and adaptable nature of student workflow, both students and teachers must be adaptive (Hillman, 2003)
FOCUSEducators may develop a single case study or problem at the start of a course or a number of problems during the course of the course. When presenting a single issue, it should be narrow enough to make sense in the context of the course while remaining broad enough to allow for a range of solutions that will necessitate deep thought. The emphasis of various problems throughout a course may be on different skill sets (such as creating learning outcomes, exercises, and assessments). If a collection of problems is scaffolded, you can start out with a number of related questions, or you can have students come up with “what comes next?” questions. For instance, a group of students may determine that a problem is too wide to understand in the allotted time, therefore they may decide to narrow their focus.
OVERVIEW OF THE CONCEPTThe recommendations that follow serve as a flexible framework for implementing PBL in online learning settings.
What exactly is the issue?There are various ways to communicate a topic, including statements that offer various perspectives on a circumstance or a case study that fosters skill development in subjectrelated scenarios (Belt, 2018).
• forming a teamAlthough self-selected groups may be more advantageous for students, they can also indicate higher socialising as opposed to concentrating on the work at hand,For a fully immersive PBL experience with greater learning potential, try randomly assigning the groups or doing it yourself (Burke, 2011).Randomizing breakout sessions is a feature of many online conference platforms, which can facilitate the procedure.
• Establish a student capKeeping groups between three and five is advised because larger groups can limit learners’ opportunities to contribute and pairings may not foster different thinking (Burke, 2011)
• Good IssuesThe issue raised should be pertinent to the subject at hand and fairly depict many potential outcomes (Hillman, 2003).
• GenuineStudent interest and perceptions of relevance might be improved by considering how a scenario might have real life ramifications (Fogarty, 1997) Similar to that, it can assist students in comprehending situations seen in their field of study (Gibbs et al., 1994).
Poorly organised and unclearReal-life difficulties, including your suggested concerns, don’t adhere to a specific set of rules (Fogarty, 1997). Learning objectives should be distinctly stated. Before starting, students must decide what their
• Disperse energy(Childs & van Oost- veen, 2016). The procedure allows for
critical reflection, which is crucial for both teachers and
students to learn and develop.
• Establish ground rules for the PBL (such as a learning
contract) or adhere to those provided at the start of the
course.
Even a mini-PBL can be used to develop ground rules (see
Activity 1 in this chapter).
• Keep a long viewAccording to Yew and Goh (2016), PBL is a highly excellent educational method for fostering long-term memory. Potentially painful Continuing from the bicycle example from earlier: There may be some road-rash if traditional learning tools, such as specific guidelines, are removed. According to Stommel (2018), students are accustomed to performance evaluations and quantitative instruction. For some people, altering a
• Education is a social constructionAccording to Lave and Wenger (1991), learning takes place through social processes, where knowledge is built upon insights gained from one’s social and physical environment. Small-group work can provide a comparable feeling. Process that is formative PBL-based work may not easily lend itself to summative or final evaluation rubrics or guidelines because it is intended to help students’ formative development (Neufeld & Barrows, 1974).
KEY ROLES • An educator is anybody in charge of directing content to
meet learning objectives. Examples of educators in this
context include a teacher, professor, clinician, or teaching
assistant. This position—often referred to as a tutor—
requires flexibility and assistance with task orientation and
learner cohesiveness.
As a result, an educator doesn’t take over conversations,
reveal solutions, or disregard conflicts.
• A learner or student. I refer to both students and learners
interchangeably throughout this chapter. If I were to make
a distinction, I may say that a student is someone who is
enrolled in formal education, whereas learners include people
who are always learning in both formal and informal settings.
• Group a small group of students or learners linked with the
goal of cooperatively exploring a common issue.
PROCESS OF PBL: The PBL process is broken down into the seven dynamic processes listed below (Neufeld & Barrows, 1974; Walsh, 2005):
1. Determine the issue.
Not a diagnosis, rather problem investigation is the learning
objective. Encourage students to begin by using the Five Ws
of problem-solving.
2. Examine earlier insights.
Finding a range of knowledge is helpful for problem
identification and critical thinking.For a deeper comprehension
at this step, it is essential to clarify information and determine
meaning through individual and group reflection.
3. Come up with a theory
Learners develop ideas about traits and mechanisms related
to the nature of the problem by building on prior insights.
4. Recognize problems
After establishing some of the knowns, students should
determine the unknowns, such as any gaps in their own
knowledge or in their ability to solve the problem.
In this stage, students may also identify any gaps in their
understanding of the issue at hand.
5. Self-education
Frequently, rather than exploring fresh perspectives of the
previously unknown, learners will withdraw to regions where
they already feel comfortable.
This phase may involve taking some time on your own to
consider any emotional, physical, or social gaps that might
prevent you from being aware.
6. Think things out again:
Reconvening, the groups discuss new information regarding
the issues and their potential for finding a solution.In this
stage, the tutor may serve as a facilitator to assist students in
synthesising and developing 7. Concluding.In this stage, the
groups consolidate their reaction or solution.Self- and peerreview or assessment will probably be useful to educators in
summarising the learning experience.
Digital technology and PBL:
Students have unique potential to improve the efficacy of
pen-and-paper PBL because to digital technologies.Unlike
breakout sessions, which offer students individualised learning
spaces to encourage individual learning and communication
skills, a lecture hall is typically noisy and obviously crowded
and recognise Recognizing that synchronous activities like
breakouts aren’t always practical for various student groups,
cloud-based documents like Google Docs provide fantastic
chances for asynchronous communication.
Having the ability to share documents also eliminates the requirement for designated note-takers because everyone in the group may examine the issue and reflect simultaneously with their peers on the same page.Likely, students will choose to communicate ideas or engage in debate via digital messaging services like text messages, Facebook, or TikTok. The availability of high-quality information to students that might not otherwise be available in traditional libraries or lecture rooms is also increased through digital library hubs, Google Scholar.Diverse delivery modalities are also supported by the incorporation of digital tools. One instance is using case studies that depict real-life or simulated occurrences using video or multi-timedia (van Oostveen et al., 2019). Teachers can provide video case studies that depict real-world issues. In the activities section, I expand on the idea of having students create a video-based case study that they can then present to their peers.With cameras being a standard, the process of creating videos has become much more timely and accessible. a cellphone accessory,Additionally, current developments can elevate video-based case studies, giving specialists in a variety of subjects, including physics and English as a foreign language, the chance to participate in immersive encounters through augmented and virtual reality (Chen et al., 2021; Fidan & Tuncel, 2019; Jivram et al., 2021).
Breakout sessions on the internet:
A key component of the collaborative PBL process is breakout
sessions. Students can participate in peer learning groups
that are small, face-to-face, and online using tools like Google
Meet, Microsoft Teams, or Zoom. Three recommendations
for productive group sessions are listed below (Burgess et al.,
2020; Thrall et al., 2016; Ulfa et al., 2021):
1. Control but don’t command:
By moving between breakout rooms, responding to direct
inquiries, providing clarification, and igniting conversation,
you can keep up your teaching presence. Give your students
the reins to steer and lead the discussion.
2. prompt feedback
Your capacity to respond and offer timely criticism can boost
participation and lessen the likelihood of pupils wandering off
task. 3. Student self- and peer-assessment promotes student
self-efficacy (Liu et al., 2018; Mao & Peck, 2013) and offers
insights into learning To help students grasp expectations and stay informed, think
about routinely gathering and reflecting on student insights.
Potential Obstacles
Implementing PBL in online settings might provide four
common difficulties, including:
1. Requirements for technology:
Students who participate in online learning may have varying
access, whether it be totally or partially online (for instance,
due to family technology use, geographic location, or financial
resources).
2. The tutor or professor goes too far:
In PBL scenarios, students must take the initiative, therefore
educators must be active players rather than the leaders
(Walsh, 2005).
3. Less useful for quick learning:
While PBL has numerous benefits, short-term learning is
not probably one of them.Over the course of a course, PBL
fosters the development of creativity, communication, critical
thinking, and problem-solving.
4. Variations in how things are done:
Yew and Goh (2016) found a variety of PBL tactics in several
academic domains after reviewing prior studies.I suggest

ACTIVITIESEstablishing a Rubric, An Introduction to PBL, Activity 1
Overview
By co-creating the rules for the term, we as teachers may fully
immerse students in a PBL experience through a small-scale
activity in the first and second classes.
For a PBL curriculum that is entirely online, the ground rules
serve as a learning contract or rubric that will direct peer and
self assessment.
An added benefit of using a common goal as an icebreaker at
the beginning of a course is that students get more involved.
DescriptionBy answering the question, What aspects will you need to consider to make this work?, you will be required to fill in the details for this task in the spirit of PBL. (for instance, period, topic, or technological platform). The general procedure is as follows:
First Step1. Outline the learning objectives and how they relate to the
discipline.
2. Collect group opinions
3. Create a rough timetable for the class (Note: I like this
concept since it includes modelling the anticipated attention
to detail), but be prepared to modify it as the class goes on.
4. Describe the issue.
You may utilise a sequence of questions such, “Considering
the learning outcomes, what do you expect from yourselves?
What do your peers expect from you?
What do we anticipate from our tutor, instructor, TA, or
education assistant?
5. Establish early self-efficacy.
Inform the students that they must locate the course outline
in the learning management system (LMS) and jot down or
type the questions for later reflection.
6. Give technical information, such as your breakout session
connection information.
The specifics shouldn’t be included in the activity but should
aid in student performance.
7. Assign students to groups.
By selecting breakout rooms at random, divide students into
groups of
8. Tour the space and ask questions.
9. Conclude the breakout discussion.
10. Be prepared for uncertainty because it’s likely that
students won’t know how to create a rubric.
11. Initiate a discussion regarding the data that students
believe they require in order to provide more accurate
answers.
Alternately, ask them to consider what they believe they know.
It might be helpful to use a Jamboard in this situation.
12. Restart the breakout sessions with fresh randomised
groupings so that students interact with different people.
13. Regroup and write the thoughts from each group on the
Jamboard.
14. Offer examples of rubrics and advice on how to create
them as homework.
Second Step1. Talk about the kids’ fresh perspectives on rubrics.
Example 2.
the previous Jamboard, please.
3. Start breakout sessions with randomized students.
4. Revise previous insights. Students develop a rubric based
on the last session and their new insights in this step.
5. End breakouts.
6. Pitch. Each group shares their rubric and outlines why they
think it’s a good idea.
7. Vote. Students vote on what they believe is a challenging
but reasonable set of expectations for the term.
8. Collect the responses and add them to the course outline
or learning shell.
Future StepsFuture Steps
• Have students evaluate their own participation in an
activity using the criteria as a guide.
• Use the rubric for self and peer evaluation at least once
before the course is over (for example, during the midterm).
Potential Obstacles• Some students can feel left out if they miss the first class.
• If students do not participate, this process may last longer
than expected.
• The components of the jointly formed rubric
might not lead to challenging expectations.
Resources Rubrics are useful assessment tools, according
to the Centre for Teaching Excellence at the University of
Waterloo. Rubrics are also tools for making learning objectives
and evaluation criteria clear for both teachers and students,
according to the CBE—Life Sciences Education.

and Google Meet.
PROBLEM-BASED LEARNING OBJECTS: ACTIVITY 2 (PBLOS)
OverviewShareable digital multimedia modules known as “problembased learning objects” (PBLOs) are transmitted through a
variety of platforms, including spreadsheets, websites, and
presentation software.
Essentially, PBLOs are made up of video case studies and related materials that offer a vague situation in an effort to elicit thought and conversation. Students gather, create, and share information in order to find solutions that are appropriate for the challenge at hand.
In synchronous or asynchronous learning environments, educators might utilise the objects to offer case studies that focus on solving problems. The latter has served as a foundational experience for BA students in Ontario Tech’s education programme for more than ten years.
A platform for collaborative online learning, PBLOs are built
on the Fully Online Learning Communities (FOLC) framework.
The framework encourages cooperation, co-creation of a
digital area, and social and cognitive presence (Blayone et al.,
2017).
The development and deployment of PBLOs will benefit from
a dynamic reflection between the stages and steps, despite
the fact that we have shared a streamlined process here.
DescriptionGroups of students will learn how to position themselves for autonomous study that emphasises genuine, collaborative, and multidisciplinary work in this two-stage activity.There are three development phases in a PBLO’s first stage.
1.1 Examination
A topic and scenario are developed from an actual learning
experience. The example should be pertinent to the students
and should cast doubt on any preconceived notions they may
have, encouraging more autonomous learning.
1.2 Conversation
The goal of educator-based PBLOs is to promote student
discourse.The dialogue that follows can encourage critical reflection
to direct prospective adjustments. For learner-based PBLOs,
the objects are created through numerous group meetings
(weekly, for example, if the PBLOs last for an entire term).
sivity, test one’s own assumptions, and investigate original
concepts.
1.3 Production
Consider the scenario’s objective and how to create a
circumstance that piques interest before moving on to Stage
2.
Being upfront and presenting a problem without expressing
bias is difficult Second stage: execution
The creation of the four-part item is the main emphasis of
stage two.
The scale of this approach makes it ideal for development
over a longer period of time, like a semester, but it may also
be adjusted for shorter times.
2.1 Case study with video.
Here, the intention is to arouse thought and persuade the
audience to put themselves in the situation being portrayed.
Use the closed captions to embed the video.
The material contains.
A video-based case study with an authentic problem and room
for viewer interpretation; a title/topic; 4-5 analytical questions
to prompt and provide context for inquiry; a transcript; and a
brief description of the video clip’s environment.
2.2 Background knowledge.
For the video case study on page 1, our objective is to offer
more context and perspective.
The content contains resources and supplemental materials
for the video and video references.
Theoretical perspective.
By presenting material that encourages critical inquiry from
numerous angles, this page or section aims to help readers
see the original issue from a fresh viewpoint.
Unorganized material that encourages critical thought about
the issue (no more than 400 words) is included in the content,
along with fresh sources and references that can be used to
create unique insights.
2.4 The concluding page or section, or “synthesis,” offers the
chance to share, talk about, and argue about solutions and
reflections.
Learners must exercise both creative and critical thinking in
this situation.
• Repetition of 2.1 with synthesis questions in place of analytical questions.
• The questions should be used by the students to facilitate
group discussions on their observations and points of view.
Potential Obstacles
• Posing difficulties.
Traditional learning outcomes include succinct, structured
information that leads to clear solutions.
Students may initially find it difficult to construct poorly
constructed situations that provide more questions than
solutions.
• Making of videos.
It’s possible that students have never made a video of this
kind, necessitating skill development that wasn’t anticipated
when the assignment was planned.
I suggested that Long before the deadline, you drop
indications about the difficulty.
