Promoting Skills for Innovation in Higher Education: A Literature Review on the Effectiveness of Problem-based Learning and of Teaching Behaviours (2014, methodology): “Colliver (2000) conducted a review of the medical education literature published from 1992-1998 in nine medical education and medicine journals, including three meta-analyses (Albanese and Mitchell, 1993; Berkson, 1993; Vernon and Blake, 1993).”
Differentiated Overt Learning Activities for Effective Instruction in Engineering Classrooms (2013, unknown): “…(e.g., Kirschner, Sweller, & Clark, 2006; Klahr & Nigam, 2004; Mayer, 2004; Montpas, 2004) or that active is not always better than passive (e.g., Colliver, 2000; Hundley, 2007, Martin, 2009; Osman, 2008a; Osman, 2008b; Sadler, 2002; Stull & Mayer, 2007; Sendag & Odabasi, 2009; Strobel & van…”

Problem-based learning and self-efficacy: How a capstone course prepares students for a profession (2005, background): “A number of research reviews (e.g., Albanese & Mitchell, 1993; Berkson, 1993; Colliver, 2000; Davies, 2000; Norman & Schmidt, 1992; Vernon & Blake, 1993) have documented PBL’s positive impact on knowledge and skill acquisition and transfer, problem solving, attitudes and opinions about courses and”
Why Minimal Guidance During Instruction Does Not Work: An Analysis of the Failure of Constructivist, Discovery, Problem-Based, Experiential, and Inquiry-Based Teaching (2006, background): “The worked-example effect was first demonstrated by Sweller and Cooper (1985) and Cooper and Sweller (1987), who found that algebra students learned more studying algebra worked examples than solving the equivalent problems.”
Problem-Based Learning in K–12 Education (2011, background): “…mixed results, and meta-analyses suggest that the alleged superiority of PBL is far from established (Albanese & Mitchell, 1993; Berkson, 1993; Colliver, 2000; Dochy, Segers, Van den Bossche, & Gijbels, 2003; Gijbels, Dochy, Van den Bossche, & Segers, 2005; Hmelo-Silver, 2004; Vernon & Blake,…”
Implementing a Problem-Based Learning Approach for Teaching Research Methods in Geography (2005, background): “However, in a review of the effectiveness of PBL in medical teaching, Colliver (2000) suggested there was no convincing evidence that PBL improves knowledge and clinical performance.”
What's So Good About Problem-Based Learning? (2004, background): “A recent review (Colliver, 2000) of studies comparing these curricula to traditional ones concludes that no compelling evidence exists for the superiority of the problem-based curricula.”
Effects of Problem-Based Learning: A Meta-Analysis From the Angle of Assessment (2005, background): “Colliver concludes that there is no convincing evidence that PBL improves students’ knowledge base or clinical performance, at least not of the magnitude that would be expected given the resources required for a PBL curriculum. Nevertheless, PBL may provide a more challenging, motivating, and enjoya”

Engaging students in learning: findings from a study of project-led education (2014, background): “…impact and effects of PBL on student learning, which resulted in a number of reviews and metaanalysis on this topic (Newble and Clarke 1986; Albanese and Mitchell 1993; Berkson 1993; Hmelo, Gotterer, and Bransford 1997; McKay and Kember 1997; Colliver 2000; Dochy et al. 2003; Gijbels et al. 2005).”
Boundary Crossings: Cooperative Learning, Collaborative Learning, and Problem-Based Learning (2014, background): “Several meta-analyses/systematic reviews have been conducted of these individuals’ studies (see, for example, Albanese and Mitchell, 1993; Colliver, 2000; Dochy, Segers, Van den Bossche, and Gijbels, 2003; Gijbels, Dochy, Van den Bossche, and Segers, 2005; Kalian, Mullan, and Kasim, 1999; Newman, 20”
