- Assessing the Effectiveness of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education: Lessons from the Literature - Offers an overview of literature on problem centered learning as it related to higher education.
- Case Studies in Science - The utilization of case studies promises great potential as a pedagogical method for teaching science, especially to undergraduates, since it humanizes science and demonstrates scientific methodology and values. It enhances students' skills in, particularly in group learning, speaking, and critical thinking, and because many of the best cases are based on contemporary--and often contentious--science issues that students find in news (like human cloning), the utilization of cases in the classroom enabling science to be relevant.
- Center for Problem-Based Learning - The Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy's Center for Problem-Based Learning works in PBL professional development, research, information sharing, curriculum development and networking in K-16 educational environment.
- Center for Problem-Based Learning Research and Communications - National and international site for research and resources regarding Problem-Based Learning. Learn who is behind PBL in undergraduate education.
- Learner-Centered Classrooms, Problem-Based Learning, and the Construction of Understanding and Meaning by Students - Overview of information regarding the development of learning-based curriculum.
- PBL Bibliography - Bibliography of the Australian Problem Based Learning Network. Citations are organized according to subject area.
- PBL Institute for Nurse Educators - Continued education options for nursing faculty wanting to learn more about the adaptation of problem-focused learning in undergraduate nurse education.
- Problem Based Learning - PBL is a curriculum development and delivery method which focuses on the need to enhance problem solving skills as well as the need to support the students to in obtaining vital knowledge and skills. The first application of PBL was found in medical schools, which intensive examine the knowledge base of students.
- Problem Solving - Explores the procedure and terminology of problem solving.
- Problem-Based Learning - PBL serves as a curriculum and a process. The curriculum is made up of thoughtfully chosen and developed issues that require the learner to acquire key knowledge, problem solving proficiency, self-conducted learning strategies, and team participation talents. The process patterns the frequently employed systemic approach to removing problems or meeting challenges which confront you through life and career.

- Problem-Based Learning (PBL) - An instructional process which challenges students to "learn to learn," enabling them to cooperatively work in groups to find answers to real world issues. These issues are utilized to engage students' curiosity and prompt them to learn. PBL preps students to think both critically and analytically and locate and utilize practical learning resources.
- Project-Based Instruction in Mathematics for the Liberal Arts - Offers projects and information for instructors and students who are interested in teaching and learning college level mathematics or post-algebra high school mathematics through project-based teaching.
