Project-Based Learning
 |
Project Based Learning is an innovative model for teaching and learning which engages
students in activities, which may be carried on in the school or outside. |
|
|
It requires students to carry out a task in cooperative groups over a period of
few days or weeks. |
|
|
It involves students in, organizing their activities, compiling their own knowledge
base, problem-solving investigations and synthesizing information, which results
in a model, written report or a display. |
|
|
Project Based Learning helps students develop skills and strategies associated with
planning, carrying out, monitoring, and evaluating a variety of investigations and
integrates them into a lifelong learning. |
|
|
Projects are often interdisciplinary.
|
|
|
It creates a climate within which students can learn and practice a variety of "learning
to learn" skills and dispositions. |
|
|
It supports the many tasks facing teachers today such as meeting state standards,
infusing higher-order thinking skills, guiding students in life choices, and providing
experiences that tap individual student interests and abilities. |

Topic: Creating comic strips
Providing a situation
In society, we communicate information/ideas through various media (words, symbols,
illustrations, etc). When analyzing comic strips, it is noticeable that each has
a different style, point of view, setting, plot and summary, communicated not only
through words, but also through illustrations and its style. Creating comic strips
can summarize various ideas through illustrations that otherwise could not be expressed
through words alone.
