Project-based learning

Project-based learning intensifies the belief that the learner’s process is flawless once the project is accomplished.

Learners may focus primarily on the final product rather than the process which is key to transferring to new circumstances. Students may feel pressure to present a polished outcome, masking the learning struggles they encountered. Above is exactly what happened to me after two nightmarish projects, once in high school and once in undergraduate days.

Extraordinarian (2022) pointed out that project based learning is ‘a good teaching method’ but still shares the caveats of any pedagogy, i.e. the goal is predestinated (as projects).
