“…Students were motivated and enjoyed working towards their lesson where problem-based learning was used. This result confirms Uygun and Tertemiz (2014) when the studied the effects of problem-based learning on students' attitudes, achievement and retention of learning a Math course. They found that students performance increase in the use of problem-based learning approach on the experimental group compared to the control group.…”

“…In their study investigating the effect of PBL on student achievement in a math course, Uygun and Tertemiz reported that the students from the experimental group using PBL were more successful. Verdú et al have developed an e‐learning platform that automatically evaluates the solutions of problems in a study they conducted to develop new learning strategies that would provide students with easier and more attractive programming training and motivation.…”

The present study aims to investigate the effect of the thinking styles on students’ attitudes toward problem based learning, web based learning and academic achievement within an online problem‐based learning environment. In this study, a single‐factor, pre‐test post‐test single group and semi empirical pattern was utilized. The study was conducted on 41 students from a public university in Turkey. To implement problem‐based learning activities, a teaching environment was designed with the Moodle platform, allowing for group work and discussions. Six status of the problems were prepared exclusively for the 10‐week application period so that students could make suggestions about how to solve them. In the data collection phase, the Scale of Thinking Styles, the Attitude toward Problem Based Learning Scale, the Attitude toward Web Based Learning Scale, and the Academic Achievement Test were employed. T‐test and covariance analyses were carried out in the statistical analysis phase. According to the findings of the present study, the Elaborator, and the Extrovert students have a more positive view of problem based learning than the Integrator and the Introvert students. Furthermore, the Elaborator and the Innovative students have a more positive view of web based learning than the Integrator and the Traditionalist students. Moreover, it was determined that the Elaborator and the Innovative students were more successful than the Integrator and the Traditionalist students. As a result, students’ thinking styles are related to attitude and academic achievement.

“…Problem-based learning is a model which centered on students, develops active and motivated learning, problem solving skills and broad field knowledge, and based on the deep understanding and problem solving [8]. Students in problem-based learning environments typically have greater opportunity to learn mathematical processes associated with communication, representation, modeling, and reasoning ( [9], [10], [11], [12]).…”

In this paper we focus on the interesting relationship of geometry and music from the perspective of problem-based learning. This teaching has to be designed with the intention of supporting students' self-education. We are looking for a connection between teaching geometry, especially congruent transformations in plane and selected musical works. We also provide specific examples of these works and analysing the occurrence of congruent transformations in them. Subsequently, we created tasks for students from this field. Our interpretations of the findings from student solutions are also presented.
