Problem-based learning definition, implementation and opportunities for collaboration.
Since first being implemented more than 30 years ago, problem-based learning has become an increasingly popular approach to education. More and more dental schools in the United States and internationally are implementing some aspect of PBL into their curriculum. This paper will define PBL, describe how it is implemented within various institutions and discuss the potential for using PBL as the basis for collaboration among institutions.
