It is time to review the schedule for the placement of your session in the AAACE Agenda. This is the final draft of the Schedule. When you look up your name, use the detail listing to check what days/times you asked to be placed. This is a huge program and we can accommodate necessary changes in day and time now, but may not be able to do so after September 1, 2013 except in emergencies. Please carefully check your placement and send any requests to Ginger Phillips, AAACE Conference Planner with AAACE Session Change Request in the subject line. We will respond to your email, but it may take us up to a week to do so. Thanks for your help in "fine tuning" this agenda!

Session Description

This concurrent session presents an innovative approach for conference attendees to explore and perhaps include problem-based learning (PBL) in their practice. Today, adults at all levels, in all types of jobs/careers face complex problems that have no correct solution. PBL is an instructional approach built around an ill-structured, messy, complex problem that requires inquiry and reflection to develop a solution as no “right” solution exists. PBL is a learning process applicable to many situations, e.g., a single training session/course module, professional/employee development, an ongoing program in academia/workplace, a team process that addresses a cross-functional topic. As learners work together to resolve the complex problem, critical thinking of actions, assumptions, and knowledge to devise an innovative solution are developed. The results in assessment of process, product, performance, team collaboration go beyond the class, program, or team environment. The knowledge sharing that occurs contributes to individual, team and organizational capabilities.
