For the example shown above (the sequence of numbers) the patterngeneralization and abstraction step comprises taking the sequence and converting it into arecurrence relation. The formula that abstracts the sequence can be written as S(i) = S(i-1) + 3 *i where i is a positive integer and S(0) = 1.D.

We can use pathways of reflection to delineate combinations of theseelements. In this section, we unpack the elements of this framing (i.e., experience, lens, meaning, Page 24.776.2action, intentional, and dialectical) of reflection and then illustrate the ideas through a

(20) There are essential and required steps that haveto be mobilized at the start of PBL. At the start of learning in PBL is the selection of realproblem(s). This is, in fact, the major driving force for learning. Effort and time dedicated to theselection of problem(s), is time well-spent and will eventually pay off. The problem(s) should bewell crafted to engage and immerse students in learning new materials, new issues, as well aschallenging existing knowledge, skills, and attitudes. It is important to note that PBL is not onlyabout giving problems and solving them in classroom, but it is also about creating opportunitiesfor
