PBL
Ever since I came here, I have been hearing the term PBL here and there but never truly had the opportunity to know more about it what more implementing it in class. I guess it something like task-based learning or where learning happens indirectly through experience of involving in tasks given. Thus, I valued the session that I had this morning when attending a colloquium where the presenter was Dr Hussain Othman who presented his PBL-based teaching and learning module. Personally, I’m amazed with the panache of this guy, whose background is in Islamic studies but presenting his materials for 2 hours completely in English language. He successfully practised PBL in his teaching and must be one of the experienced ones in using the approach in this university. So bravo doc! I just wonder if I could collaborate with him in using blogs for communication purpose in his PBL class.
