Abstract

Problem Based Learning (PBL) is a teaching method that is able to transfer tacit knowledge from lecturers to students based on Socialization, Externalization, Combination and Internalization (SECI) model. However, the SECI model does not include the students’ performance factor, which is an indicator to measure the effectiveness of teaching and learning processes. Hence, our study proposes a framework to evaluate the effectiveness of using PBL as a teaching method in Software Engineering (SE) education to transfer the tacit knowledge by enhancing the SECI model. This paper is a part of our study that purposely wants to evaluate a measurement model of knowledge transfer process in PBL teaching method in SE education. This study used survey as a method for data collection. The respondents were students who registered for System Analysis and Design (SAD) courses. The data was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS). The results have shown that the measurement model fits the data. Therefore, the framework is suitable for PBL teaching method in SE education. Further, this study intends to identify the relationship between SECI model in PBL teaching method for SE domain.
