What is a project?
Global Explorer 2014

Project Work Encourages Students’ Development by
• Encouraging students to express their ideas and opinions.
• Developing logical and critical thinking skills.
• Encouraging learner independence.
• Helping to build social skills and teamwork.
• Providing opportunities for experiential learning.
• Giving learners the opportunity to share their knowledge of the world.
• Extending general knowledge about the topic.
Why do we do Project Work?

The Trouble Is….
• I’ve never done it before
• It’s different
• It’s too messy
• I can’t find the materials
• The IWB isn’t working
• Too much Chinese, not enough English
• Students don’t understand what to do
• The students won’t pay attention
• Etc….

Lessons Learned
• Try out the project yourself before you go to
class.
• Everything will take longer for the students
to do than you think it should!

Lessons Learned
• If the students are going to make
something, show the students a
finished example.
• If they are supposed to be creative, then show
a range of examples.
• Some will copy the examples while
others will follow the basic idea to
make their own.

• Demonstrate (model) the key steps.
• Break down instructions or steps into small,
comprehensible pieces.
Lessons Learned

• Only distribute supplies after giving
instructions.
Lessons Learned

• Figure out how you would direct
someone to do the project if you had zero
shared language.
• In the classroom add language that is
appropriate for the student level, up to and
including natural, authentic
speech.
Lessons Learned

• Is there a time limit for completing the
project?
• Display a countdown timer on the IWB
Lessons Learned

• Keep students on task by:
-walking around the room and asking individuals
or teams about their projects
-reminding students what they still need to do
• This is a great way to encourage and generate
relevant English!
Lessons Learned
