Frustrated with the lack of student engagement and authentic, interactive, collaborative pedagogy, he tries Problem-Based Learning (PBL). By following steps of implementing and assessing PBL, he successfully leads his class through their first PBL case, The Case of the Crowded Sidewalks, and gives students the confidence and knowledge to continue more complex PBL problems throughout the semester. Although fictitious, the instructor in this scenario represents a compilation of concerns, successes, confusions and frustrations voiced by faculty and students in higher education through the authors\u2019 professional development workshops, teaching, and research studies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Documents:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The_Case_of_the_Crowded.docx\">The_Case_of_the_Crowded.docx<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The_Case_of_the_Crowded.pdf\">The_Case_of_the_Crowded.pdf<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/\"><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/journals.staffs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Volume: 3 Issue: 2 Year: 2018 Author(s): Vincent Genareo Salisbury University This paper provides a scenario of Dr Picksie, an urban engineering instructor in an institute of higher education.
