Problem-based learning. An outcomes study.
Problem-based learning (PBL) as a dynamic teaching methodology was detailed in the March/April 1998 issue of Nurse Educator. In this article, the second part, an outcomes study completed to evaluate PBL as a teaching methodology for registered nurse students is described. Two qualitative and two quantitative studies were conducted and are reported in this article. The results definitely support PBL as an effective teaching strategy for nursing educators.
