Abstract | Project-based learning is not a new idea. It has a solid track record of increasing student motivation and improving students' problem-solving and higher-order thinking skills (Stites, 1998; Thomas, 2000). In the traditional model, students work in teams to investigate open-ended questions and apply their knowledge through culminating products or simulations. Students make choices about what they investigate and how they demonstrate what they have learned, setting the stage for active learning. Reinventing the project approach for today's learners does not mean discarding this venerable model. Instead, it involves maximizing the use of digital tools to better reach essential learning goals, expanding classroom boundaries so that students gain real-world experiences and become global thinkers, and creating experiences that satisfy diverse learning styles and learner dispositions. The result can be a turbo boost that takes learning into a new orbit--and gets students ready for the 21st century world where they will work and learn. (ERIC). |
