What is project-based learning?

Project Based Learning (PBL) is a research-based best practice in which scholars learn by actively engaging in real-world and personally meaningful projects. Project Based Learning engages scholars in learning through both personal and collective perspectives and inspires a love of learning and personal connection to their academic experience.  Elements of Project Based Learning include the Project Launch,  Essential Questions, Ideation, Draft, Critique and Revision, Exhibition, and Reflection.
