What is project-based learning?
"Project learning, also known as project-based learning, is a dynamic approach to teaching in which students explore real-world problems and challenges, simultaneously developing cross-curriculum skills while working in small collaborative groups."

Suppose you are consideringimplementing technology-rich, project-based learning in your classroom this year.
What should you consider or what would you need to
know?

May need to reconsider…
• Your learning goals• The way you talk and engage with
students• Your classroom management style• The physical arrangement of your
class• How you think about assessment• What you collect• How you communicate with parents
and colleagues

Hallmarks of Reinvigorated Approach to Projects
• Forms centerpiece of curriculum• Real-world activities• Strategies of authentic disciplines• Collaborative work on problems that
matter• Technology for discovery,
collaboration, and communication• Cross geographic boundaries and
time zonesReinventing Project-Based Learrning

REVIEWING CURRENT PROJECTSPitfalls in project design
• Long on activity, short on learning outcomes
• Technology layered over traditional practice
• Trivial thematic units• Overly scripted with many, many
steps
![Page 19: Project-Based Learning](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56812a64550346895d8ddddb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
QUALITIES OF BEST PROJECTS
• Loosely designed• Generative• Center on driving question• Capture student interest• Realistic• Reach beyond school• Tap data or primary sources• Students learn with and from others• Students work as inquiring experts• 21st century skills• Important learning dispositions• Students learn by doing
