Study Notes
Basic Concepts of Project-Based Learning
- Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a teaching method where students actively learn by engaging in real-world projects.
- PBL projects involve investigating and responding to authentic, complex questions.
- PBL aims to connect school with life, making it a learning environment where students experience direct learning.
- PBL leads to deeper understanding and better retention of knowledge.
- Students can apply their knowledge to new situations.
Theoretical Framework: Historical Background of PBL
- John Dewey emphasizes linking school to life for the student.
- Dewey believed school should be a place where students live and interact, not just a place for completing tasks.
What is Project-Based Learning (PjBL)?
- PjBL is a teaching method where students actively learn by engaging in real-world projects with personal meaning.
- Project-based learning is an instructional strategy enabling students to learn meaningful content & practice 21st century skills.
- PBL allows students to set and evaluate their goals, encompassing content and related skills.
Project-Based Learning as a Contemporary Approach in Education
- Project-Based Learning is a crucial teaching method in 21st century education.
Project-Based Learning as a Contemporary Approach in Foreign Language Education
- Organizing language projects enables foreign language learners to develop their abilities in authentic contexts through interaction and communication.
- PBL in language learning allows students to set and evaluate learning goals in content and other related skills.
Distinguishing Features between Project-Based Learning and Traditional Projects
- Traditional projects are often teacher-directed, with teacher-based assessments and evaluations.
- PBL projects usually involve project launches, rubrics, need-to-know steps, activities, workshops, lectures, homework, research, labs, and benchmarks.
- Students in PBL create, receive feedback, build, write, prepare drafts, and reflect/revise.
- PBL assignments involve projects submitted to the teacher, public presentations, and reflection/revision
What are Benchmarks in PBL?
- Benchmarks are sub-tasks or building blocks to complete the final product in a PBL unit.
- Every student/group must complete the benchmarks and are often assessed.
- Benchmarks break down projects into digestible chunks that allow for formative assessment.
Project-Based Learning vs. Projects: A Comparison
- Traditional units end with a culminating project but PBL integrates projects throughout the unit.
- PBL units include project launches, rubrics, activities, workshops, lectures, research, benchmarks, and student presentations with reflection/revision.
Project-Based Teaching Practice
- Project-Based Teaching includes design and planning, adhering to standards, building culture, managing activities, scaffolding student learning, assessing student learning and coaching students.
Gold Standard PBL/High-Quality PBL
- Gold standard PBL focuses on challenging problems, significant content, authenticity, key college/career competencies, student voice/choice, critique & revision, and managing projects.
What Theories is PjBL Based On?
- PjBL is based on several educational theories emphasizing active, experiential, & social learning processes like constructivism, social constructivism, experiential learning theory, and inquiry-based learning.
Constructivism
- Students construct their knowledge and understanding through experiences and experiments.
- Inquiry-based learning is based on a "need to know."
- In Project-Based Learning, students develop solutions to complex challenges by seeking diverse information and creating meaningful products.
Vygotsky's Contribution
- Vygotsky emphasizes learning through social interaction & environment, enabling cognitive development.
- Community plays a vital role in "making meaning."
PBL in Kazakhstan
- PBL implementation and awareness of Gold-Standard PBL essentials are analyzed to understand the compliance of Kazakhstani PBL with the Gold-Standard model.
