Description¶
The article offers research-driven guidelines in which specific learning environment features and teaching practices are matched to each phase of PBL to foster student responsibility for learning. Rather than a single generic intervention, support is differentiated by project phase, addressing the goal-setting, monitoring, reflection, and motivation demands that arise "from the beginning of the project until the end."
Design Implications¶
Context¶
Requirements¶
- Teachers need knowledge of the SRL demands of each PBL phase to match practices to phases
Constraints¶
Target Learners¶
- students engaged in problem- or project-based learning
Target Learning Goals¶
- student responsibility for learning, motivation, and self-regulation across project phases
Affordances¶
Claims¶
- Research-driven guidelines exist for promoting student responsibility for learning in PBL [+W]
- Success in PBL requires students to set goals, monitor, reflect, and sustain motivation across the whole project, yet many students do not do these processes naturally [+W]
- AI-driven PBL environments enhance educator and student collaboration via real-time feedback, intelligent scaffolding, and data-informed instructional decisions [+M]
Related Strategies¶
- Intentional Srl Support Design In Pbl
- Racial Equity in PBL - Create Beautiful Spaces
- Use the special issue's design-process questions to shape new SRL scaffolds
