摘要
In computer science and engineering (CSE) education, project-based learning (PBL) has become a highly effective pedagogical strategy for encouraging students' teamwork, creativity, and problemsolving abilities in the real world. The current trends and difficulties with PBL implementation in computer science and engineering courses are thoroughly examined in this research. Within the context of computer science and engineering education, the evolution and integration of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is thoroughly analyzed. Emphasis is placed on its numerous advantages such as enhanced critical thinking, elevated student engagement, and the development of essential practical skills beneficial for a successful career in the field. Thus, a number of trends-including the growing demand for industry-relevant skills, the shift towards interdisciplinary collaboration, and the growing significance of open-source contributions in academic and professional settings-have an impact on the adoption of PBL. Consideration is also given to how technology, like virtual and augmented reality, bolsters immersive and group PBL experiences. However, a number of obstacles prevent the widespread adoption and successful application of PBL. These challenges include faculty reluctance because a change in conventional teaching methods is necessary, a lack of infrastructure and resources, difficulties with assessment and evaluation, and the potential for an unequal distribution of effort among students. With an emphasis on faculty development, resource allocation, and the creation of efficient evaluation strategies, I offer solutions to these issues. Finally, I discuss PBL's future directions in computer science and engineering education, highlighting the need for ongoing development and adjustment to the always-changing technological environment. At the same time that I acknowledge the persistent difficulties that educators and institutions continue to face, I also emphasize the value of PBL in preparing students for the dynamic and challenging nature of computer science and engineering education.
