Owing to the customary education edifice together with dearth practices in mathematics learning,
the circumstances of mathematics curriculum reforms in Nepal have advanced seriously awry

plight student centered and new pedagogical approach Problem Based Learning which grounded
Problem Based Learning, PBL, is one student centered pedagogical approach to learning that
helps students build the abstract reasoning skills, versatile communication skills, administration
skills, problem solving skills, higher order thinking skills and deep understanding skills that are

edifice however, it has a lot of positive and obtrusive hallmarks, and I consent to the necessity of
mathematics. Throughout in this essay I have discussed brief introduction of PBL with its history
and features, current state of grade eight students’ achievement in mathematics of Nepal,
potential actions that are pre-requisites in order to implement PBL, steps of PBL in mathematics
