The most common methods areproblem and project-based learning techniques. Both provide more open-ended types ofexperiences for students, but also require more upfront organization from the instructor.Problem-based learning exercises are generally open-ended, real-world problems worked out inteams where the instructor simply facilitates and monitors progress. Project-based learningexercises are similar, but usually include more than one task that leads to a final product, alsoworked out in teams [3].
