Edutopia: Project-Based Learning. ‘In project-based learning, students work in teams to explore real-world problems and create presentations to share what they have learned. Compared with learning solely from textbooks, this approach has many benefits for students, including: a) Deeper knowledge of subject matter; b) Increased self-direction and motivation; c) Improved research and problem-solving skills.’
