The students were categorized into high, middle, and low achiever students based on their English speaking proficiency.

Student motivation within teacher-centered learning settings tends to take the form of competition between students, mostly based on grades (Attard etal., 2010: 8). According to McLellan and Soden (2004: 254), within this learning approach, the pedagogic methods used are lecturing, note-taking, and memorizing information. The student-centered learning (SCL) approach, on the other hand, allows the students to do all the work. To learn, the students have to be doing all the work; not the teachers. The students have the freedom and are in control of their learning. The philosophy underlying the student-centered learning approach is that the student experience in learning is precisely 'active learning' in which it helps students to learn independently (MacHermer and Crawford, 2007: 11). Furthermore, within student-centered learning, there is an intrinsic motivation with emphasize being on cooperation rather than competition between students (Di Ioio, et al, 2010:8). This research is aimed to observe the students'behavior in PBL class and to explore their opinions toward the implementation of Problem Based Learning in their class. In seeking for the answers, as many as thirty-five participants from a university in Bandungwere given activities based on Problem-Based Learning (PBL) as one of the best alternatives to traditional classroom learning (Study Guides and Strategies, 2011).The activities of the students are based on the theory guiding of the Problem-Based Learning framework proposed by Spence (2004)in which the students pursue solutions by exploring the issues, defining the problem, investigating solutions, researching the knowledge, writing the solution, and reviewing the performance. The method used in this research is descriptive method by collecting, processing, analyzing, interpreting, and concluding data. The data are gathered through observation, questionnaire, interview, and students' journal.
