Transformative Learning Through Problem-Based Approaches

This talk explores the innovative concept of Learning That Starts With a Problem (LTSWAP). It delves into the principles of problem-based learning, emphasizing both convergent and divergent thinking to foster understanding and adaptability. Key questions addressed include identifying where learners are coming from, their current understanding, and their future paths. The session will highlight practical exercises aimed at defining problems to enhance bio-physical concepts, environmental issues, and analytical skills—all crucial for deep, meaningful learning experiences.

  1. Learning that starts with a problem.

  2. Where ? When ? Why ?

  3. What is this talk about?

  4. What is this talk about? Learning from problems A theory of learning Improving learning for understanding

  5. Learning that starts with a problem • Problem based learning • Convergent – practice parts of the processto reach an expected outcome • Learning That Starts With A Problem – LTSWAP • Divergent –demands practice of the whole process to achieve an unexpected outcome.

  6. Learning that starts with a problem • Three things we always need to know • Where have I come from? • Where am I ? • Where am I going ? • Tri pethau yn dylai yn ystyried • Ble mae o, • Ble mae’n dod • A ble mae’n mynd • Triban Fynnon Llanfrothen 14th Cant

  20. Exercise One

  21. Learning that starts with a problem • Exercise 1 10 minutes. Define a problem that will lead students into learning about:- • The bio-physical concepts • The environmental and social issues • Information gathering skills • Higher order analytical skills

  22. In 10 minutes define a problem that will lead students into learning about:- The bio-physical concepts The environmental and social issues Information gathering skills Higher order analytical skills Consider : What will they practice? How will you know that they understand? Learning that starts with a problem

  24. Learning that starts with a problem Test Your Answer • How much deliberate practice will there be ? • How much variation will there be?

  25. Learning that starts with a problem Test Your Answer • How much deliberate practice will there be ? • How much variation will there be?

  26. Learning that starts with a problem Test Your Answer • How much deliberate practice will there be ? • How much variation will there be?

  27. Learning that starts with a problem Test Your Answer • How much deliberate practice will there be ? • How much variation will there be?

  28. Learning that starts with a problem • Practice and Variation • Understanding : (the space of experiential variation) • Understanding is recognised in “flexible performance” not just “what do you know ?” but more like“what can you do with what you know ?” It is adaptive performance.

  29. Learning that starts with a problem • When I understand something, when I have learned then I can say (do or show) it again – but I can also say (do or show) it at another time, in a different way, for a different reason” • Understanding is recognised in “flexible performance” not just “what do you know ?” but more like“what can you do with what you know ?” It is adaptive performance.
