Problem-based learning supported by semantic techniques

Abstract: Problem-based learning has been applied over the last three decades to a diverse range of learning environments. In this educational approach, different problems are posed to the learners so that they can develop different solutions while learning about the problem domain. When applied to conceptual modelling, and particularly to Qualitative Reasoning, the solutions to problems are models that represent the behaviour of a dynamic system. The learner's task then is to bridge the gap between their initial model,… Show more

“…N-Gain values revealed that overall N-Gain value of the experimental group's mental model indicators was higher (0.21) than that of the control group. Similarly, the results of LSD test also showed that the PBL was more effective at improving the students' mental models than the conventional learning model (Lozano, Gracia, Corcho, Noble, & Gómez-Pérez, 2015). PBL learning model could also assist students in developing their mental models in either group or individual learning to solve problems (Scott, 2017).…”

“…PBL activities that are focused on the inquiry process can help students to collaborate with each other, especially in understanding the context of the lesson [29]. PBL can direct students to learn from the context of problems in daily life on order to be able to develop their problem solving skills [30]. One of the Physics materials that is still difficult for students is Static Fluid material, such as understanding the concept of hydrostatic pressure, comparing hydrostatic pressure on different liquids, the concept of pascal, and the concept of Archimedes [31].…”

“…Previous research still discusses the thermal conductivity of solids [34], convection in water [34], but the conductivity of water to describe physical conditions is still rarely studied. Therefore, one learning model that can facilitate the improvement of the student's mental model is problem based learning (PBL) [35]. In addition, PBL also trains students to communicate experiment, collaborate in teams, build ideas and develop independent learning skills [36].…”
