PBL
The What
What is PBL (project-based learning)?
Project-Based Learning (PBL) is an educational approach where students acquire knowledge through active involvement in authentic, real-world projects that hold personal significance to them.
PBL
The Why
What are the benefits of PBL?
Engaging students in Project-Based Learning (PBL) offers several research-backed benefits:
Deeper understanding of content
PBL encourages students to delve deeply into subjects by working on projects that require them to apply and integrate knowledge from various disciplines. This fosters a deeper understanding of the content.
Critical thinking and problem-solving
PBL necessitates critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Students learn to analyze information, identify issues, and develop creative solutions, vital skills for the real world.
Retention and application of knowledge
Research suggests that students are more likely to retain and apply what they’ve learned through PBL compared to traditional rote memorization. Learning by doing enhances long-term knowledge retention.
Real-world relevance
PBL connects classroom learning to the real world. When students work on projects that have real-world applications, they see the relevance of what they’re learning and are more motivated to engage with the material.
Collaboration and communication
PBL necessitates critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Students learn to analyze information, identify issues, and develop creative solutions, vital skills for the real world.
Intrinsic motivation
Research has shown that PBL can increase students’ intrinsic motivation to learn. When they have a degree of autonomy in choosing and executing projects, they are more engaged and enthusiastic about their studies.
Preparation for future careers
PBL helps students develop skills and competencies that are highly valued in the workforce, such as problem-solving, teamwork, adaptability, and project management.
Cultural competence
Some of the PBL projects are designed to explore cultural aspects, promoting cultural competence and awareness, which is increasingly important in our diverse global society.
Assessment of complex skills
PBL allows for the assessment of complex skills and competencies that traditional exams may not capture effectively. Teachers can evaluate students’ abilities to apply knowledge in authentic contexts.
Lifelong learning
PBL instills a love for learning and a mindset of continuous improvement. It encourages students to become lifelong learners who are adaptable and open to acquiring new knowledge and skills throughout their lives.
