OverviewAn exploration of a broad range of issues about facilitation, designed to help staff examine the complex areas related to problem-based learning and the ongoing development of staff, students and the curriculum. It investigates understandings of facilitation that have emerged from the author's research and ways of equipping and supporting staff in terrestrial and virtual contexts. It also discusses what it means to be an effective facilitator and argues ways of designing problem-based curricula that enhance learning.
