MY REPORT
Problem-Based Learning meaning is students learn by listening to lectures and reading, and are assessed on their ability to recall and communicate what they have learned. With problem-based learning, students are assessed on their ability to go through a problem solving process. Through this topic, students learn about problem-solving skills, self-directed learning skills, ability to work on a team, leadership skills, communication skills, Measurable knowledge base, Ability to find/use appropriate resources Critical thinking, Performance ability, Social and ethical skills and Proactive thinking Congruence with workplace skills. In fact, on this topic we can analyze the problem of individual and a group.
Reasons for using Problem-Based Learning is low retention when taught in a traditional lecture format (Bok 1989). Infrequent appropriate use of knowledge learned (Schmidt 1983). Conditions that optimize retrieval and appropriate use of knowledge in future professional practice.
According to Schmidt and Moust, "The Seven Jump" method have some of important things among is :
1. Clarify unknown terms and concepts.
2. Define problem(s).
3. Analyze problem.
Step 1:Brainstorm.
4. Analyze problem.
Step 2:Discuss.
5. Formulate learning issues
(self-directed).
6. Fill in gaps through self-study.
7. Share findings, integrate into comprehensive explanation. Check whether you know enough now.
Besides that, according to the Classroom of the Future (NASA) is :
1. Read and analyze problem.
2. List what is known.
3. Develop problem statement.
4. List what the group needs to find out.
5. List possible actions.
