Project Based Learning (PBL)
What is Project Based Learning? It is the idea of solving real-world problems through research, discovery, hands-on work, and teamwork. Individuals are given the freedom to pursue their claim and find evidence with some guidance from instructors. The best thing about Project Based Learning is that it can be an interdisciplinary pursuit. Projects will touch upon almost every subject which is more practical than the single subject project. Various tools and technology can be introduced to create a wholesome experience for the learner. Most importantly, the project is meant to be shared with peers or the public in order to help educate and even extend the project to new levels of accomplishment.
