1.1. Briefly discuss what is project-based learning and why is it important.
Project-based learning gives students the chance to interact extensively with the
target topic, focusing on long-term retention rather than summative regurgitation
and short-term memorizing. Because PBL can keep students interested, it also
improves students' attitudes about education10 Due to the way the PBL structure
organizes student learning around a focal topic or problem and a significant
result, it is very effective in fostering intrinsic motivation. In the end, students are
more interested in understanding the response or solution than the teacher is in
finding out what they are aware of, cognizant of, and capable of.
The interpersonal components of PBL and the use of technology in the
classroom go together like bread and butter. Technology-based projects take into
account the complete spectrum of student requirements and learning styles and
are transdisciplinary, collaborative, inquiry-based, self-directed, and inspiring.
Additionally, when PBL opportunities are carried out effortlessly within the
welcoming boundaries of your school's learning management system, the aims
of digital citizenship and literacy in the digital age become incorporated in
techbased projects.
Playful project-based learning helps in:
Allowing a child to demonstrate his or her capabilities while working
independently.
It also develops the child's ability to work with his or peers, which
enhances team work.
It helps the teacher communicate in progressive and meaningful ways
with the child or a group of children on a range of issues.
, Project-based learning allows you the freedom to use a child’s natural
curiosity in an educational setting. As children learn, they are exposed to
new words through stories and songs. Encouraging kids to present their
findings both in writing and in short, playful,presentations helps children
who are dual-language learners or who have speech delays develop
confidence when speaking.
Project-based learning helps learners identify what they hope to
accomplish and teaches them how to create a plan to achieve it.
It helps both the students and teachers to reach out beyond school
building It allows the teacher to learn more about the child as a person.
