Abstract

This study mainly assesses the differences between learning performance and the satisfaction of learners who use digital resources in Taiwan libraries´ history digital library (organized digital resources) and the Google search engine (unorganized digital resources) in problem-solving learning for the same subject via the problem-based learning (PBL) mode. The study explores the advantages and characteristics of using digital archives to support PBL and offers suggestions that are helpful when using digital archives to support e-Learning.
