Professor's Resource Site - Using a Variety of Teaching and Learning Strategies - 0 views

  • Case-based, project based, and problem-based learning are all profiled in this site from Virginia Tech. For each teaching model you will find a definition, design tips, college-level examples of the model in action (very interesting), and further references. Here are key pages from the site. Case-based: http://www.edtech.vt.edu/edtech/id/models/casebased.html Problem-based: http://www.edtech.vt.edu/edtech/id/models/anchored.html Project-based: http://www.edtech.vt.edu/edtech/id/models/construction.html Advanced Problem-Based: http://www.edtech.vt.edu/edtech/id/models/pbl.html

      I have been struggling to make the distinction between PBL and CBL. I really needed this validation that I was on the right track. Thanks for taking the time to review this article in a busy week! Chris 1 point from Lori

  • In law school, the more advanced students can take a class in trial skills, where they gain experience by actually preparing a "case" for trial. By drafting documents, responses to documents, interviewing witnesses, arguing pre-trial motions and actually participating in a mock trial, these students gain skills that they will use in real world practice.

      1 point Sarah - I can attest this is a group learning experience no instructor can duplicate. As an Investigative Officer we charge mariners for negligence, misconduct, or violation of law/regulation. We also try our own cases against the mariner through an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) (we the only governmental agency that allows non-lawyers to try cases). It is not in the realm of criminal and civil law as we only have to prove to a "preponderance" of the evidence vice "beyond a reasonable doubt" and most cases are prima facie. To try these cases an IO has to go to a Suspension and Revocation School where we go through the process (most of what Sarah said) from filing a Complaint, witness interviews, filing Motions, Discovery, and a mock trial with an ALJ. The instructors are "hands off" as one must digest the process because in three weeks we are "practicing." Most would not succeed in the field if this instruction were only given via PowerPoint. Sarah, it is great the law school has this class, as I understand, most law schools do not offer a course in procedure. Normally it (procedure) must be learned through reading and actual case experience. Could you, or would you, say this is a PBL type of experience (esp. if computer based precedent research is involved)?
