The process of problem-based learning: what works
and why


Henk G Schmidt, Jerome I Rotgans & Elaine HJ Yew


OBJECTIVES
In this review, we portray the process of problem-based learning (PBL) as a cognitive endeavour whereby the learner constructs mental models relevant to problems. Two hypotheses are proposed to explain how learning is driven in PBL; an activation–elaboration hypothesis and a situational interest hypothesis.
