1. Through project based learning students will be able to participate in many different activities. Also in large group projects. Students do have homework, but PBL allows students to have real world experiences while remaining in the classroom. Students can learn to work together and how to make a difference in their community.
2. "Bringing the project home" has a lot to do with reflection. It helps students to go back and look at the work that they have done and see what they could have done better, or what they did really well.
3. When we "come to the end" of our project time here we need to reflect on what we have done. We can look at the progress we have made in our time with technology. Having the blog helps us to see how far we have come and what we could have changed.
Sarah, I like how your reflection was short, but still right on point. Also, I like how you related "Bringing the project home" to reflection.
ReplyDeleteI really like the idea of reflecting once done with a project. I believe this helps students think about what they enjoyed, didn't enjoyed, and what their strengths and weaknesses throughout the process were. I think in a classroom, it is important to reflect on projects in order to fully understand what happened during the project and what the project was about.
ReplyDeleteI like how you related the topic to the class. We are coming to the end of our project and that relates to the topic as we are now sharing what we have learned in this course. I agree that Project-Based learning allows students to have real world experiences that the students would not have in a usual classroom.
