Özet:

 


  Project-oriented problem based learning (POPBL) is
an alternative approach to innovative teaching and is widely implemented in the
classroom. However, little information is gathered pertaining to its
implementation in psychology-related subjects. The present study is guided by
two objectives: 1) to examine students’ perception of this type of approach,
and (2) to determine whether students’ perception improves after the
implementation of POPBL. 103 participants aged between 18-24 years old (M =
21.91, SD = 2.14) participated in this study. A measure, named the Students’
Learning Experience Scale (SLES) was constructed to determine participants’
perception of their learning in five aspects: (1) acquired knowledge, (2) soft
skills, (3) contribution and engagement, (4) sustainability; and (5)
assessments. The results from the present study suggested that the POPBL was
indeed highly acceptable and favored by all students. A paired t-test was also
conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the approach on students’ scores on
the SLES. The results show that there was a significant difference in the
scores for students’ perception of the course before (M = 4.15, SD = .45) and
after (M = 4.41, SD = .40); t(87) =
(-4.05). p = .000. These findings
were further discussed with respect to the current literature on teaching and
learning approaches, and the significant implications in developing effective
pedagogic strategies.
