Abstract

This paper is a literature review which aims to discuss and summarize the experiences and cases of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) applied in engineering universities. The authors first reviewed the historical developments of PBL.After that, based on the experience of PBL teaching in engineering colleges in various countries, the authors summarized the operation process of PBL before and after class in engineering schools. For these studies, we evaluated the effectiveness of PBL. This review found that although there were very few previous studies related to English PBL teaching, it was an effective method for science and technology students to improve personal achievement, including personal ability, cooperation awareness, and English study motivations. This implied that PBL has a huge potential for implementation in English courses to enhance the learners’ English skills. Also, some improvements and limitations are discussed.
