Abstract
Problem-based learning (PBL) is a pedagogical approach to enhance students' knowledge and skills. Learners face real-world problems and tasks in this approach, necessitating critical thinking, problem-solving, collaboration, and creativity. The significance of PBL lies in its ability to enhance practical skills, bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical applications, promote collaboration and interpersonal interactions, and stimulate creativity in addressing complex issues and developing innovative solutions. Given the importance of this approach and the objectives of governance schools in developed countries to elevate the skills of students and governors in bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical experience, this study employs a comparative case study strategy to examine governance schools globally. Based on this analysis, the methods employed by these schools in integrating PBL principles to strengthen public governors' cognitive (conceptual), interpersonal, and technical skills to address public issues are outlined.
