Description:

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.

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. The educational triggers include: Case One: "What's Wrong With My Baby Boy?" Case Two: "Quantum Leap" Case Three: "Why Can't I Save This File?" Case Four: "Just One More Minor Change..." Case Five: "Do you want to play as well..." http://www.ied.edu.hk/citie/learnetmain.html
