“…These results enrolled with study conducted in Australia on peer assessment of first year medical students, which revealed that peer assessment encourages students to develop critical reasoning skills and enable them to learn from each other. (24) However, a study in China confirmed that students who are familiar with the traditional teaching might feel uncomfortable in PBL roles in which they have to coordinate with peers, be independent, and generate their own studying materials (25) . These was contradicted with the current study in which, the majority of postgraduate students who were familiar with the traditional teaching strongly agreed that PBL is effective than lecture.…”

“…We used a structured questionnaire containing 20 statements regarding students' evaluation of ways of learning based on problems and demographic data (sex, age, type of study, and employment status in nursing). Students' views on the effectiveness of problem-based learning were assessed by using 20 items from the problembased learning evaluation questionnaire [17], which was partially adapted and prepared in Slovenian language. Problem-based learning evaluation questionnaires were already used in studies [17][18][19].…”

“…Students' views on the effectiveness of problem-based learning were assessed by using 20 items from the problembased learning evaluation questionnaire [17], which was partially adapted and prepared in Slovenian language. Problem-based learning evaluation questionnaires were already used in studies [17][18][19]. Using the questionnaire, we evaluated five key dimensions of problem-based learning: construction of professional knowledge, development of problem-solving skills, development of self-directed learning, improvement of motivation, and promotion of effective group collaboration.…”

“…Research studies [5,13,14] showed that information gained with problem-solving ways of learning is preserved longer. Therefore, in the opinion of authors [13,[15][16][17], learning based on problem-solving develops skills of communication, problemsolving, teamwork, leadership, and understanding; skills that are important for smoother transition into a clinical environment.…”

Introduction: Problem-based learning is a teaching method that encourages critical thinking, group interaction, and application of the theory into practice. Transition to active forms of learning, with integrating problem-solving strategies, will help to raise the quality of education. The aim of the study is to determine students' evaluation of problem-based learning in the study of nursing.Methods: Descriptive method and quantitative research methodology were used. Nursing students from one of the faculties in Slovenia participated in the study and structured questionnaires (Cronbach α = 0.953) were used.Results: Average values of all items regarding to the student's evaluation of problembased learning were very high (>4 out of 5). According to the results, there is no statistically significant difference in the assessment of problem-based learning between full-time and part-time students (t = -0.818, p = 0.414), but we found statistically significant differences (t = 2.377, p = 0.018) depending on whether students are employed in nursing or not. Discussion and conclusion: Problem-based learning encourages nursing students' motivation, independence, and teamwork and helps to acquire knowledge and skills necessary to function in nursing.

“…In addition, the PBL process is a learner-centered process that triggers free requisition for knowledge by the learner. PBL has been incorporated into some undergraduate nursing programs but its effectiveness has not yet been reported [16][17][18][19]. One study showed that PBL will produce proactive learning and suggested that nursing education should incorporate PBL [20].…”

Background. McMaster University first introduced Problem Based Learning (PBL) in the mid 1960s. However, measuring the relationship between PBL for undergraduate nursing programs and students test performance has not yet been assessed in the USA. Purpose. The main purpose of this paper is to describe the effectiveness of PBL on senior student test performance on content related to PBL in a BSN program. Diabetes mellitus and renal insufficiency were taught by traditional lecture format in the previous years. This was the first year we taught this content by the problem based learning method. Method. Historical control group was used to compare the test performances between the PBL groups and the traditional group using Student's t-test. Result. The mean of diabetes mellitus related questions missed by the PBL group was less than the traditional group ( = 4.51, and = .00). The mean of renal insufficiency related questions missed by the PBL group was more than the traditional group ( = −6.44, and = .00). Discussion. This study produced inconclusive findings. Factors that could be attributed to their performance will be discussed.
