The CCDMD welcomes submissions for the Problem Based Learning website. Once a submission is received, it is reviewed by peers before it can be accepted. The CCDMD may require authors to make revisions to submitted problems in accordance with the standards of the site. Authors will also be asked to sign a limited copyright release so that accepted problems may be published. A small honorarium is also available for each problem that is published to the site. PBL problems usually include a number of features that assure the content is meaningful and context-rich. These features include:         •Each problem is cast within a short story revolving around the student. The word “you” is used frequently since the student is the central character. •The problem statement includes something that is meaningful to students and would incite them to solve the problem. •The situations and objects depicted in the problem are real (or imaginable) and consist – as much as possible – of familiar objects. •The problem is ill-structured structured. That is, it cannot be solved in one step. Many steps are required: The first of which usually consists of clearly defining the problem to solve. It is possible (and sometimes preferable) to have more than one solution to the problem.       To submit your own PBL problem and contribute to this site, please use the Problem Submission Form. You may use either the Word Format Form or the Online Form. You may refer to the useful links or Problem Submission Guide (PDF format) for assistance in writing and submitting your problem.         To ensure quality materials, classroom tested PBL problems are preferred for inclusion on this site. Note that all PBL problems submitted will be subjected to a peer-review process before online publication.         We look forward to your use and contribution of PBL problems to our emerging community of users.
