Question-Based Learning Concepts

The video explores question-based learning, highlighting its ability to foster exploration and adaptability in uncertain situations. Unlike problem-based learning, which seeks fixed solutions, question-based learning embraces uncertainty and promotes a holistic, ecological approach. It encourages creative and iterative processes, integrating critical evaluation and expanding knowledge as an open system. This method empowers learners to engage with complex systems and relationships, making knowledge dynamic and interdisciplinary.

What is a key feature of question-based learning?

• It seeks definite answers.

• It avoids forming new questions.

• It encourages non-linear exploration.

• It focuses on solving problems quickly.

How does question-based learning differ from problem-based learning?

• It focuses on isolated problems.

• It provides fixed solutions.

• It empowers the inquirer by accepting uncertainty.

• It avoids uncertainty.

What is a fundamental flaw of problem-based learning?

• It accepts uncertainty.

• It encourages holistic understanding.

• It considers the world as a set of isolated problems.

• It promotes creative thinking.

What approach does question-based learning promote?

• A rigid and static knowledge system.

• An ecological approach to learning.

• A quick-fix solution method.

• A narrow focus on isolated problems.

What is the role of relationships in question-based learning?

• They are ignored.

• They are central to understanding.

• They are considered irrelevant.

• They are seen as obstacles.

What is the nature of the process in question-based learning?

• Linear and predictable.

• Iterative and creative.

• Static and unchanging.

• Focused on immediate solutions.

What does question-based learning integrate into its process?

• Isolation from other disciplines.

• Avoidance of new questions.

• Critical evaluation of its own methods.

• Fixed answers.

How does question-based learning view knowledge?

• As a closed system.

• As a static entity.

• As an open and dynamic system.

• As a set of fixed facts.

What does question-based learning promote in terms of knowledge?

• A rigid disciplinary boundary.

• A creative feedback loop of expansive knowledge.

• A static and unchanging view.

• A focus on isolated facts.

What does question-based learning require from the inquirer?

• To seek immediate solutions.

• To engage in creative and iterative questioning.

• To follow a linear path.

• To avoid asking questions.
