Reading Reflection #11

Reading Reflection #11

1. Teacher's and student's both benefit from Project-based learning approach. For students, PBL can help them:
-become more engaged in their learning
-help understand project management
-learn from previous knowledge
-learn to apply information in future learning
-meet deadlines
-work with a global audience
-reflecting on projects
-be independent and build confidence
For teachers:
-have the chance to watch their students grow in their learning
-communicate while reflecting on projects and completed work
-sharing class ideas with other teachers
-always do their best to become better then they are.
Project-based learning is beneficial for both teachers and students and it is something I hope to use in my future classroom!

2. Starting and finishing a project is a big accomplishment. Just because it is finished, does not mean that it should be said aside. Finishing a project should leave students with memories and ideas that can help them on their next journey. Reflecting on projects is so important because it helps look back and expand knowledge on future projects while celebrating students' work and moving on to the next exciting thing.

3. This chapter wraps up everything like we are doing in class now. It is important to look back on Project based learning and why it is so important in the classroom. Once our projects in our classroom are finished, we will reflect and be proud of what we accomplished. This chapter does a good job wrapping our semester up along with giving advice on what students should take away from projects and how to finish a project strong with meaning.

  2. I like how you related this chapter of the textbook wrapping up the end of our semester. By reading the book we have gathered the tools needed to be successful within the project based learning system and this chapter does a nice job at wrapping everything up. Great post!

  3. Very organized and detailed. I like how you pointed out that starting and actually finishing a project is a big accomplishment. With that attitude I feel like you will be able to encourage yourself and your students to finish whatever you start.
