According to the Office of Educational Research and Improvement, problem-based learning is a strategy choice for workplace trainers, instructional designers and educators because in a society where change is constant and teamwork is a way of life at work, the lessons learned through involvement in problem-based learning are essential for students' career development. In this book, the characteristics of problem-based learning are explained and the theories that support problem-based learning are explored. Through a faculty mentoring project, the research conducted at a community college found significant improvement in student engagement and learning with a diverse population of students. Educators will enjoy and apply the course case studies and instructional activities. Faculty leaders and administrators will be inspired by concepts of moving faculty and students toward a learner-centered organization. There is an emphasis on the need to prepare the future workforce to meet the challenges of a global economy.
