[ISECOM-HACKERHIGH-DISCUSS] Problem Based Learning for Hacker High School??

[Seow K. W. <seo...@rp...>]

Hi all,

=20

My name is Khee Wei Seow.  I'm new to the discussion list.  A little bit
about myself.

=20

I'm primarily an academic staff with Republic Polytechnic
(http://www.rp.edu.sg/ ) , School of Infocom Technology in Singapore.
More on what my school does can be found here :

I went through the course content of HHS and would like to suggest that
*maybe* PBL pedagogy can be introduced?=20

I'm not sure if you are familiar with PBL... in RP, we are 100% PBL,
i.e. we do not have any lectures and tutorials.  Instead, all our
modules are presented as problems for students to solve.  Along the way,
picking up relevant knowledge.

Let me know your thoughts.

Regards

Khee Wei
