Library Support for PBL and EBL

This page explains the concept of Enquiry Based Learning, its advantages and how it is used to support teaching and learning.

UCD is currently involved in several student-centered approaches to teaching and learning. These include Enquiry Based Learning (EBL), Problem Based Learning (PBL) and large class projects.

We can support EBL in a variety of ways:

  • Delivering information skills classes
  • Acting as a group facilitator
  • Contributing to the design of the EBL curriculum.

The Library is currently supporting EBL initiatives in a number of schools:

  • School of Agriculture, Food Science and Veterinary Medicine
  • School of Medicine and Medical Science
  • School of Nursing, Midwifery and Health Systems
  • School of Psychology.

Further details on PBL/EBL and how we can assist are covered in our guide.
