i am a graduate student getting a masters in education. as a research project i used torp's text to supplement my learning. her book provided enough information, examples, and applications to stand alone. she definitely has a commitment to using PBL...not just talking about it. she urges people to go further in their understanding and use of PBL and supports her framework with facts and experienced intuition. i recommended this book to every member of my MAT program as a must have for using PBL...and not just the future science teachers.
