A Scientometric Review of the Current Status and Emerging Trends in Project-Based Learning

Abstract

Abstract-Project-based Learning (PBL) is an effective teaching and learning method, it can promote the performance of the learner to adapt the future work environment. The aim of this study is to provide a perspective on PBL that identify the current status, emerging trends, and certain important themes. By mining the database of Web of Science (WoS), the study had collected 522 references about PBL. By utilizing the application software of WoS and CiteSpace to analyze the data, the study had identified the current status and main emerging trends of PBL. The hottest trends and most popular topics over the past 20 years were discussed. The most popular topics of PBL includes: "the changing global economy", "project ecologies", "flexible environment", "collaborative teamwork", "enhanced graduate attribute", "teacher belief", "engineering design thinking", and "community involvement" etc. Finally, the findings from this study can provide a knowledge map to researchers and practitioners for future work.Index Terms-Project-based learning (PBL), web of science (WoS), CiteSpace.

Meningkatkan Hasil Bimbingan TIK melalui Implementasi Project-Based Learning Berfasilitas Media Video Pembelajaran

“…Salah satu model pembelajaran dimaksud yang diyakini dapat memfasilitasi belajar siswa secara efektif dan inovatif adalah model project-based learning atau pembelajaran berbasis proyek. Project-based learning merupakan model pembelajaran yang berpusat pada peserta didik (student-centered) yang memberikan pengalaman belajar yang bermakna bagi peserta didik berupa terbentuknya suatu konsep pada diri siswa yang dibangun berdasarkan produk yang dihasilkan dalam pembelajaran, sehingga siap menghadapi lingkungan kerja masa depan (Li et al, 2017;Sumarmi et al, 2021). Project-based learning dapat mengaktifkan siswa dan memberikan mereka kesempatan untuk bekerja secara mandiri serta mendapatkan catatan menarik yang membantu mereka memahami materi melalui proses pemecahan masalah untuk menyelesaikan proyek (Dwiyani Putri et al, 2019;Rahayu & Sukardi, 2021).…”

Design of a course in e-Learning mode under the vision of Project-Based Learning

“…Por otro lado, muchos nuevos organismos reguladores de la educación en ingeniería y universidades de todo el mundo están implementando el uso del aprendizaje basado en proyectos (PBL), en donde un objetivo central de PBL es facilitar el proceso de aprendizaje más profundo y apoyar la adquisición de competencias cognitivas complejas por parte de los estudiantes [35], [41], por ejemplo, conocimiento de contenido riguroso y habilidades de pensamiento crítico. Los proyectos involucran a los estudiantes en la definición de problemas, el proceso de diseño, la comprensión contextual y los enfoques de pensamiento de sistemas [42], [43]. Los estudiantes aprenden a trabajar en equipo y a planificar y realizar las diferentes tareas que se requieren durante un proyecto.…”

CDIO‐CT collaborative strategy for solving complex STEM problems in system modeling and simulation: An illustration of solving the period of mathematical pendulum

“…The teaching strategy of the problem-projectoriented STEM education is the project-driven teaching (PDT) [14,18,26]. The PDT is also named with problembased learning (PBL1) [2,32,34,43] and project-based learning (PBL2) [19,31,38,39]. Here the "learning" emphasizes the perspective of the students and the "teaching" emphasizes the perspective of instructors/ teachers.…”
