Abstract
Recently, Project-Based Learning (PBL) attracts attention in higher education to encourage active learning and activation of knowledge obtained in lectures. However, novices in projects face difficulties in grasping tasks required in completion of the projects, and consequently they often fail in scheduling their projects. In this paper, we adopt the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), a technique in project management, as an effective tool to support such novices, and propose an introductory method of WBS in PBL. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed through experiments.
