The Power of Problem-Based Learning
 I have followed the superb activities of these authors and colleagues at the University of Delaware to bring PBL to undergraduate education. In this book, they share their experience. This three part book does not disappoint."Think of this book as an enjoyable, readable 'owner's manual' for problem-based learning across a variety of disciplines; and celebrate it's arrival because it makes the difficult task of turning classrooms into settings for active learning a whole lot easier."If you have ever wanted to know about PBL, here's the book for you!  It's a splendid description of the secrets and strategies for any undergraduate classroom, from anthropology to zoology and everything in between. It tells of big classes and small, of writing problems and solving them, all written by a bevy of experts. It's a practical guide for both faculty and administrators dedicated to using one of the great active learning methods--the one that is absolutely tops in my judgment in training students to be independent learners.
