"The mind is not a vessel to be filled but a fire to be kindled" (Plutarch, On Listening to Lectures). This presentation aims to capitalize on prior research on problem-based learning (PBL) models in other disciplines. Through active discussion, attendees will review a conceptual overview of PBL models that can be applied to the counselor education curriculum within the structure of the CACREP 2009 Standards to enhance student learning outcomes and capitalize upon students' diversity.
