After watching the tutorial "What is PBL?", I understand much better the difference between both things, and though in both scenarios, students have to deal with concepts and skills to put up a final product, in PBL students learn on their way as they work on their project, they have to develop skills like critically thinking, being creative, thinking out of the box and learning to work cooperatively. The role of the teacher in both strategies is also very different. In PBL, teachers have to put more energy and work before the project starts, once it starts, we become guides and facilitators. As a teacher, I have tried use PBL as a way of teaching in my science class. However, I realize now that I am standing in the middle, there are still some things that I need to change and implement to become a full PBL teacher.
The following diagram, states the main differences from my point of view between these two instructions.
