Human understanding is a key component in today’s knowledge economy.  To capitalize on this component, organizations are placing increasing importance on systems to support learning.  These are complex systems comprised of learners, instructors, processes, protocols, hardware, and software. The interaction of Problem-based learning (PBL) methods and technology offers great potential as a foundation for exploring these learning systems. 

 

This mini-track is intended as a forum for researchers and practitioners to demonstrate the integration of problem based learning and technology. This mini track is especially interested in papers that:

·        Discuss and demonstrate how technology can be used for Problem Based Learning;

·        Provide protocols (detailed processes for using technology) to participants for problem based learning;

·        Report research findings with problem based learning methods.

 

Minitrack Chairs: Ben Martz  wmartz@uccs.edu & Morgan Shepherd mshepher@uccs.edu
