Abstract

It is a problem in application-oriented personnel education that students are hard to apply their knowledge learning from classes. Problem-based learning (PBL) is now a widespread method which can help students learn to apply knowledge. But the teaching condition with limited resources is a big obstruction when using PBL in the undergraduate curriculum. Taking into account this problem, a problem-based teaching (PBT) method is proposed. In PBT, a teaching process is split to four steps: (1) Design a problem; (2) Analysis how to solve the problem; (3) Teach the related key knowledge through deposing and solving the problem. (4) Help students consolidate the new knowledge through solving similar problems. An example is given to illustrate how to use PBT in XML course.
