Problem-centred learning provides opportunities that use real-world problems to increase student’s knowledge and understanding. Problem-centred learning is particularly suited to ill-defined, complex, multi-faceted sustainability issues ('wicked problems') that typically are not solved through simple problem solving. It provides a learning environment for creativity, risk-taking, and innovation for students.
This guide forms part of the staff ESD toolkit resources and aims to take you through a step-by-step process to think through the design of student problem solving activities focused on sustainability.
