Teachers Guide to Project-based Learning

February 2, 2016
According to BIE, project based learning is “an instructional approach built upon authentic learning activities that engage student interest and motivation. These activities are designed to answer a question or solve a problem and generally reflect the types of learning and work people do in the everyday world outside the classroom.”In its essence , project based learning is all about engaging learners in meaningful and goal-oriented learning activities.Technology is proved to be an effective means of creating and enhancing a PBL-based culture in and outside class. Over the last few years, we have reviewed and shared a wide variety of tools and websites to help teachers integrate the ethos of PBL in their instruction. We revisited these resources and curated them into this handy chart. We invite you to check it out and share with us your feedback. Enjoy
