An Investigation into Pre-Service Teachers’ Perceptions of Learning Primary School Science Using the Method of Problem Based Learning (PBL)

Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the pre-service teachers' perceptions into learning primary school science using the method of Problem Based Learning (PBL). This learning strategy has been introduced into the B.Ed. programme at the University of Trinidad and Tobago for pre-service teachers who are expected to implement it in their teaching profession in primary school science. The research study attempted to identify the perceptions of these pre-service teachers during the learning process of PBL. Dat… Show more

“…Relevant literature on PBL begins to diminish as the search for PBL's effectiveness targets pre-service teachers' perceptions towards being taught using a PBL model (for example, Erdogan & Senemoglu, 2017;Mohamed, 2015;Pepper, 2013). Erdogan and Senemoglu (2017) applied the principles of PBL in a testing and evaluation subject to investigate pre-service teachers' opinions about being taught using a PBL approach.…”

“…One of the obstacles is the lack of time (Burris & Garton, 2007).

“…In addition, through a scientific approach, students are encouraged to be better able to observe, ask questions, reason, think scientifically (Ahlam & Gaber, 2014), and communicate or present things learned from natural phenomena or direct experience. Models that support the scientific process, such as Problem Solving or inquiry, Discovery Learning (Alberida et al, 2022;Utami et al, 2021) and Project Based Learning (Borhan, 2014;De, 2014;Lee et al, 2014;Mohamed, 2015;Temel, 2014).…”
