Keppell, Mike (2008) Authentic cases and media triggers for supporting problem-based learning in teacher education. In: Online and distance learning: concepts, methodologies, tools, and applications. IGI Publishing (IGI Global), Hershey, PA. United States, pp. 2568-2580. ISBN 978-1-59904-935-9

Abstract

Within teacher education problem-based learning (PBL) has the potential to enrich teaching and learning across the curriculum. It is suggested that PBL may offer a means of providing authentic scenarios for assisting pre-service teachers before encountering teaching practice. The use of media-based educational triggers and authentic scenarios may form a bridge between their studies and real-world teaching practice. Five media-rich educational triggers are described in early childhood education, physical education, educational technology, project management and inclusive education. Reusable media-based educational triggers may also provide potential resources for other educators within teacher education.
