Title A critique of problem-based learning in nursing education and the contribution it can make toward beginning professional practice, part one Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal
Volume 19 Issue 2 Pages 41-51
Keywords Nursing; Education; Critical thinking; Problem solving; Nursing; Teaching methods
Abstract (up) Within New Zealand nursing education there appears to be a widespread acceptance of problem-based learning and an assumption that the strategies it uses are unproblematic. A review of the literature however, reveals that problem-based learning has drawbacks that may inhibit the achievement of desired graduate outcomes. It seems timely for nurse educators to exercise caution in uncritically accepting problem-based learning approaches and using them as the predominant approach to teaching and learning. To this end, a two-part critique of this teaching and learning method is presented. Part one critiques the methods of problem-based learning, discussing self-directed learning, the group process, self-assessment, and content knowledge. Part two explores the philosophical underpinnings of problem-based learning, and the so-called 'fit' within nursing.
