Reflection on Problem-Based Learning and Critical Thinking

Faisal Nadeem*

Many pedagogies in nursing education are developed to boost students’ critical thinking skills. Problem Based Learning (PBL) is the widely used methodology to enhance nursing students’ critical thinking skills and to solve the practical problems in the clinical and academic areas independently. Globally many studies have examined its effects on nursing students’ learning outcomes and others have studied the association among the outcomes. In this scholarly research paper the author has reflected on the importance of PBL and the associated hindering factors for the nursing students.
