Overcoming teacher challenges in the future

Overcoming teacher challenges in the future revolves around looking to use the modern techniques in teaching. PBL is a model for classroom activity that shifts away from the classroom practices of short, isolated, teacher-centered lessons emphasising instead learning activities that are long-term, interdisciplinary, student-centered, and integrated with real world issues and practices (San Mateo County Office of Education 2003).

Comparing this to traditional classrooms students were students work on simple assignments that emphasise short-term content memorization, work independently of others but at the same task and write for the teacher alone (Pearlman, 2006) .
