Project Based Learning
Project Based Learning is one approach to create a learning environment where students construct personal knowledge based on real world issues and practices.
Learning activities are long term and open-ended, empowering the students with the ability to make choices and decisions.
In these types of activities, students are more likely to internalize the learning that takes place because they feel a greater sense of ownership over their work when required to make decisions based on real world issues.
The teacher's role shifts from that of transferring knowledge to that of a learning facilitator in this student-directed environment.
