Every quarter, our centre publishes our in-house newsletter - Reflections on PBL - that reports on PBL's impact on trends in education and industry.
PBL is used widely in many institutions, and we want to share our own unique perspective, experience and implementation of it within our institution.
We interview our staff, educators and industry partners to hear their views on how problem-based learning is more than just a teaching tool, especially in the way it links to a learning culture deeply rooted in independence, resourcefulness and collaborative work.
If you are interested in contributing articles for our next issue, please email our newsletter co-ordinator, Ms Lean Jie Xin .
