This document discusses using a law enforcement simulation as an example of problem-based instruction. It describes problem-based instruction as presenting students with an open-ended problem without a single correct answer. Students then work to solve the problem by determining what is known and unknown, with the instructor providing support. The document then gives the specific example of a "Use of Force Continuum Simulation" where students must apply the use of force continuum as officers responding to scenarios. It lists equipment like sidearms, pepper spray, and tasers that would be used in the simulation.

2. Overview
• Problem Based Instruction (PBI)
• The Use of Force Continuum Simulation
• State the Problem
• Give information to help solve the problem

3. Problem Based Instruction (PBI)
• PBI is based upon experienced based education
Students are presented with a problem with no single
correct answer
Students engage the problem with ideas on how to
solve it
Determine what is currently known and not known
The facilitator or instructor provides the required
support for learning
Active
Learning

4. s
• Self-directed
• Self-regulated
• Life Long Learning
• Assume Greater Importance
• Much Larger Audience
• Addresses real world situations

5. PBI and Simulation
• Repeatable learning opportunities
• Freedom to learn from mistakes
• Learning can accommodate a range of learners
• Detailed feedback and evaluation
• Active Learning
