As part of my research on Instructional Processes and Strategies to use in lesson planning, I became most interested in the role of problem-based learning in adult education. Writing for the Newsletter of the Center for Teaching Effectiveness, art historian Mark Parker Miller shared his experience with assigning “problems” for his students to solve over the semester. In the article he outlines one of the assignments, how he approached it and also reflects on what went well for his students and also where some students struggled. Miller explains his objectives in a way I found helpful for thinking about my own curriculum planning and lesson planning.
