Project based learning approach a real expereinceRajeev Ranjan
“Project Based Learning; a Real Learning Experience” ” is an integrated learning approach. A project is meaningful if it fulfils two criteria. First, students must perceive it as personally meaningful, as a task that matters and that they want to do well. Second, a meaningful project fulfils an educational purpose. Well-designed and well-implemented PBL------------ -----------------
Many researchers have focused on online collaborative learning, crosscultural
communication, project-based learning, digital literacy, and digital
storytelling but there is no pedagogical framework that incorporates these
elements for English as Foreign Language (EFL) teaching. This study based
on the qualitative design established a pedagogical framework from three
different types of cross-cultural collaborative projects with the collected data
including students’ artifacts and project structures. We have found that the
pedagogical framework proposed here serves as a guide to facilitate different
types of cross-cultural projects in their classrooms. The multiple cases of
cross-cultural online collaborative projects in an EFL class were taught
according to the theories of project-based learning and content language
integrated learning alike, proved to follow this pedagogical framework.
Implementation is also described to give more details on how the projects
were conducted. In the end, opportunities and challenges are provided for
future implementation of online collaborative EFL projects.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Theory
Contemporary societies needs and looks for leaders, personalities who are able to
solve a problem, express their opinion and create new ideas.
Our aim is to help our students to get leader skills and find ways out from different
situations. Our students should be able to think critically, cooperate and create
something new to get success in their future life. We, teachers, shouldn’t make them
follow our ideas, we should teach our students to be creative problemsolvers.
People face various challenges in everyday life. We should help our students to be
ready for such challenges and overcome any obstacles. To be skillful in it students
should plan and project their future. Our life consists of a series of projects (a job
assignment, home improvement, planning a wedding, etc.) In the process of
projectbased learning (PBL) students practice a broad range of skills and learn all
kinds of new facts and skills that are sure to stay with them for the rest of their life.
3. What is Projectbased learning?
Project Based Learning is a teaching and learning model (curriculum development
and instructional approach) that emphasizes studentcentered instruction by
assigning projects. It allows students to work more autonomously to construct their
own learning, and culminates in realistic, studentgenerated products. More
specifically, projectbased learning can be defined as follows:
Focuses on the central concepts of a discipline.
Engaging learning experiences that involve students in complex, realworld projects
through which they develop and apply skills and knowledge.
Learning that requires students to draw from many information sources and
disciplines in order to solve problems.
Learning in which curricular outcomes can be identified upfront, but in which the
outcomes of the student's learning process are neither predetermined nor fully
predictable.
Experiences through which students learn to manage and allocate resources such
as time and materials.
(Moursund, 2002; J. W. Thomas et al., 1999)
Although PBL is popular as an approach, it lacks from a universally accepted model
or theory and one can find in literature a diversity of defining features (W. J. Thomas,
2000a). In order to capture the uniqueness of PBL and to screen out non examples
of it, Synteta (2001) made the synthesis of the features described in literature
(Reginald & Laferrière, 1999; W. J. Thomas, 2000b), and ended in the following: PBL
emphasizes activities that
are central to curriculum,
longterm (more than a couple of class days and up to semester),
interdisciplinary,
have a driving question that is challenging and constructive,
are studentcentered and are based on collaborative or cooperative group learning,
are integrated with real world issues and practices,
have productive outcomes,
have an impact on “life skills” like selfmanagement, group process, and
problemsolving skills,
and use cognitive tools, usually technologybased
(Krajcik, Blumenfeld, Marx, & Soloway, 1994; Marx et al., 1994).
According to these criteria, there are not PBL instances (Synteta, 2002):
the projects that are not central to curriculum but serve as a complementary
practice,
projects that don’t have an intellectually challenging driving question,
projects that can be carried out with alreadylearned information or skills,
projects that are scripted (P. Dillenbourg, 2002),
4. projects that focus on simulated and not realistic questions.
Projectbased learning refers to any programmatic or instructional approach that
utilizes multifaceted projects as a central organizing strategy for educating students.
When engaged in projectbased learning, students will typically be assigned a
project or series of projects that require them to use diverse skills—such as
researching, writing, interviewing, collaborating, or public speaking—to produce
various work products, such as research papers, scientific studies, publicpolicy
proposals, multimedia presentations, video documentaries, art installations, or
musical and theatrical performances, for example. Unlike many tests, homework
assignments, and other more traditional forms of academic coursework, the
execution and completion of a project may take several weeks or months, or it may
even unfold over the course of a semester or year.
Closely related to the concept of authentic learning, projectbasedlearning
experiences are often designed to address realworld problems and issues, which
requires students to investigate and analyze their complexities, interconnections, and
ambiguities (i.e., there may be no “right” or “wrong” answers in a
projectbasedlearning assignment). For this reason, projectbased learning may be
called inquirybased learning or learning by doing, since the learning process is
integral to the knowledge and skills students acquire. Students also typically learn
about topics or produce work that integrates multiple academic subjects and skill
areas. For example, students may be assigned to complete a project on a local
natural ecosystem and produce work that investigates its history, species diversity,
and social, economic, and environmental implications for the community. In this
case, even if the project is assigned in a science course, students may be required
to read and write extensively (English); research local history using texts, news
stories, archival photos, and public records (history and social studies); conduct and
record firsthand scientific observations, including the analysis and tabulation of data
(science and math); and develop a publicpolicy proposal for the conservation of the
ecosystem (civics and government) that will be presented to the city council utilizing
multimedia technologies and software applications (technology).
In projectbased learning, students are usually given a general question to answer,
a concrete problem to solve, or an indepth issue to explore. Teachers may then
encourage students to choose specific topics that interest or inspire them, such as
projects related to their personal interests or career aspirations. For example, a
typical project may begin with an openended question (often called an “essential
question” by educators): How is the principle of buoyancy important in the design
and construction of a boat? What type of publicservice announcement will be most
effective in encouraging our community to conserve water? How can our school
serve healthier school lunches? In these cases, students may be given the
opportunity to address the question by proposing a project that reflects their
interests. For example, a student interested in farming may explore the creation of a
school garden that produces food and doubles as a learning opportunity for students,
5. while another student may choose to research health concerns related to specific
food items served in the cafeteria, and then create posters or a video to raise
awareness among students and staff in the school.
In public schools, the projects, including the work products created by students and
the assessments they complete, will be based on the same state learning standards
that apply to other methods of instruction—i.e., the projects will be specifically
designed to ensure that students meet expected learning standards. While students
work on a project, teachers typically assess student learning progress—including the
achievement of specific learning standards—using a variety of methods, such as
portfolios, demonstrations of learning, or rubrics, for example. While the learning
process may be more studentdirected than some traditional learning experiences,
such as lectures or quizzes, teachers still provide ongoing instruction, guidance, and
academic support to students. In many cases, adult mentors, advisers, or experts
from the local community—such as scientists, elected officials, or business
leaders—may be involved in the design of projectbased experiences, mentor
students throughout the process, or participate on panels that review and evaluate
the final projects in collaboration with teachers.
A PBL group at Sydney Dental Hospital
Problembased learning (PBL) is a studentcentered pedagogy in which students
learn about a subject through the experience of problem solving. Students learn both
thinking strategies and domain knowledge. The PBL format originated from the
medical school of thought, and is now used in other schools of thought too. The
goals of PBL are to help the students develop flexible knowledge, effective problem
solving skills, selfdirected learning, effective collaboration skills and intrinsic
motivation. Problembased learning is a style of active learning.
Working in groups, students identify what they already know, what they need to
know, and how and where to access new information that may lead to resolution of
the problem. The role of the instructor (known as the tutor in PBL) is to facilitate
learning by supporting, guiding, and monitoring the learning process. The tutor must
build students' confidence to take on the problem, and encourage the students, while
also stretching their understanding. PBL represents a paradigm shift from traditional
teaching and learning philosophy, which is more often lecturebased. The constructs
for teaching PBL are very different from traditional classroom/lecture teaching.
Barrows defines the ProblemBased Learning Model as:
1. Student Centered Learning
2. Learning is done in Small Student Groups, ideally 610 people
3. Facilitators or Tutors guide the students rather than teach
4. A Problem forms the basis for the organized focus of the group, and stimulates
learning
6. 5. The problem is a vehicle for the development of problem solving skills. It
stimulates the cognitive process.
6. New knowledge is obtained through SelfDirected Learning.
Teachers offer students a choice of work form:
oral presentations
digital presentations
videos
books
websites
dramatizations
bulletin boards
posters or cards
A video project is my favourite form. It is a good alternative to boring homework. It
gives possibilities to work on different topics. Not only classes specialized in learning
foreign languages, but students with less number of hours for learning English are
able to shoot a video with the help of a digital camera or a mobile telephone. The
aim of such work is to help student not to be afraid to speak and to make a mistake.
The aim is to break the language barrier. Moreover, video projects are suitable for
students of any age.
Working on a video project students are put in the centre of the action, where they
use the language practice сommunicative speech. It is not only learning English, it is
also enjoyment. They tell about themselves, their hobbies, personal things. This
work helps students to understand that they can use English to tell about their own
world, share their ideas and interest other people. It encourages them to enrich their
vocabulary with new words and expressions. Besides, students practice all learning
skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking).
