What is project based learning? project based learning is the ongoing act of learning about different subjects simultaneously. Learning that allows demonstration in performance, that has brought challenges for students to solve. It is beneficial because it allows the students a chance to critical think, and explore the task hands on. It also build teamwork and communication skills. The PBL that I remembered that I have experienced is a leaf project. The class were divided into groups, where we all took time to look and the different line patterns within a certain leaf and to identify that patter. Afterwards, we presented our results as a group. I believe PBL is more appealing to the teacher because it gives their students to be actually active in class. It is not always about lecture, students tend to zone out of just constant talking, so getting the students actually engaged in the lesson and or project could be crucial in how they learn the material or the objective thats being taught. The environment should relaxing. Having students in groups/pairs. Setting the scene in the classroom for what the project will be based upon.
