Project-based learning has tremendous potential for creating a learning experience which is both interesting and meaningful for adult students whether they are learning English, preparing fortheir G.E.D. or transitioning into the workforce.

In the literature, examples of project-based learning vary in both context and implementation. In project-based science, for example, emphasis is placed on a driving question to guide an investigation (Blumenfeld et al., 1991; Marx, Blumenfeld, Krajcik, & Soloway, 1997). In teams, the class performs similar experiments and collects data to help answer the driving question, and the students help determine how the data is analyzed, what it means and how the results will be presented. This inquiry process takes considerable amounts of time and requires students to work well with each other (see e.g. Scott, 1994), but the process is representative of authentic scientific investigations.

Step 3 -- Having chosen an appropriate learning style, critically analyze PBL projects (appropriate to your approximate grade level) listed below based on this perspective. Use the worksheet you downloaded/printed to note particular features of each project that address elements of your chosen learning style. You don't need to spend too much time (no more than 10 minutes) on any one site.
