What are some examples of project-based learning research in action?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Project-based learning (PBL) is a teaching method that engages students in solving authentic problems or creating meaningful products through collaboration, inquiry, and reflection. PBL can enhance students' motivation, critical thinking, creativity, and communication skills, as well as their content knowledge and academic achievement. But how can teachers implement PBL effectively in their classrooms? Here are some examples of PBL research in action that can inspire and inform your practice.

本文章的要点总结

Student choice in projects:

Allowing students to choose their projects boosts motivation and relevance, leading to increased engagement and personalized learning experiences.
Learning in nature:

Taking PBL outdoors taps into natural problem-solving opportunities, fostering collaboration through hands-on challenges that resonate with students.

1 PBL in Science Education

One example of PBL research in action is the Science Learning through Engineering Design (SLED) project, funded by the National Science Foundation. SLED aims to improve science learning and interest among elementary and middle school students by integrating engineering design challenges into the science curriculum. The SLED project involves teachers, researchers, and engineers in designing, implementing, and evaluating PBL units that align with the Next Generation Science Standards. The SLED project has found positive effects of PBL on students' science understanding, engineering practices, and attitudes towards science and engineering.

Few examples of PBL in STEM are pblworks(previously buck institute) offering numerous case studies, resources, and publications that provide insights into the design and assessment of Gold standard PBL experience. Another is the Micro:bit foundation project.

Interleaving design thinking process within curriculum mapping is a great way to embed project based learning in science. The concepts delivered act as the foundation on which students empathize with situation to identify and define a problem , ideate solutions and create prototypes . This ensures direct application of scientific knowledge acquired through curriculum. Theories can be put to test and validated to give a better understanding of science around us. Stem based case studies by explorelearning is a good example of such an approach towards learning science .

2 PBL in Language Arts

Another example of PBL research in action is the Deeper Learning through Multilingual PBL project, funded by the U.S. Department of Education. This project explores how PBL can support the development of academic language and literacy skills among English learners and bilingual students in dual language programs. The project partners with teachers and schools to design and implement PBL units that engage students in using multiple languages and modalities to investigate and communicate about real-world issues. The project also examines how PBL can foster students' identity, agency, and intercultural competence.

One example of such project is related to the development of intercultural competence. In my Linguistics course, the students interview international students and ask about critical incidents in their learning journeys overseas. These stories are then shared following the ethical considerations virtually/online to engage others with further discussion of aspects related to intercultural encounters of international students.

3 PBL in Mathematics

A third example of PBL research in action is the Math in a Cultural Context (MCC) project, funded by the National Science Foundation and the Alaska Native Education Program. MCC is a series of PBL modules that integrate mathematics and indigenous knowledge and practices from Alaska Native cultures. The modules are designed to enhance students' mathematical understanding, problem-solving skills, and cultural awareness. The MCC project collaborates with teachers, elders, and community members to develop and implement the modules, and to assess their impact on students' learning outcomes and attitudes.

4 PBL in Social Studies

A fourth example of PBL research in action is the Civic Engagement through PBL project, funded by the Spencer Foundation. This project investigates how PBL can promote students' civic knowledge, skills, and dispositions in social studies classes. The project works with teachers and students to co-create PBL units that address relevant social issues and involve students in taking informed action. The project also explores how PBL can foster students' democratic participation, critical consciousness, and social justice orientation.

5 PBL in Art Education

A fifth example of PBL research in action is the Arts Integration through PBL project, funded by the U.S. Department of Education. This project examines how PBL can enhance students' artistic expression and appreciation, as well as their academic achievement and engagement, in art education. The project supports teachers and students in developing and implementing PBL units that integrate art and other subjects, such as science, math, or history. The project also evaluates how PBL can influence students' creativity, collaboration, and communication skills.

I have loved PBL in Art Ed although it was technically more English, DT and Drama. My students worked in teams to create their own puppet show of Macbeth to deepen their understanding of the text, themes and characters. It was effective because they had to make key decisions on what to include/leave out and therefore priority key ideas.

6 PBL in Online Learning

A sixth example of PBL research in action is the Online PBL project, funded by the U.S. Department of Education. This project explores how PBL can be adapted and implemented in online learning environments, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. The project provides teachers and students with online PBL tools, resources, and guidance, and studies how PBL can improve students' online learning experiences and outcomes. The project also investigates how PBL can support students' social and emotional learning, self-regulation, and digital citizenship in online settings.

When using project-based learning in academics, it's best practice to provide student choice in project creation. Allowing student choice can provide intrinsic motivation and make schoolwork relative to a student's life. Allowing student project choice also allows for differentiated instruction.

Try taking learning outside. Nature provides many opportunities to problem solve in collaborative ways. PBL's we have worked on include, building a shelter large enough to fit our group of 5 students. Determining the best way to deal with a flooded area. How do we control the erosion of one of our pathways? How do we attract more birds to our area? Students in our K-2 grade classes notice issues and then collaborate, research and go through the engineering design process to come up with solutions.

This is an excellent combination of technology to solve health problems in a classroom. Moreover, presenting their prototypes in a fair session help student promote their spoken skills by summarizing ideas in a few words.
