Project Based Learning

“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.” ~ Benjamin Franklin

Project based learning is empowerment learning. It allows our young people to engage with education as a 3 dimensional experience. Too often, however, the project itself takes priority over the process for students, and it diminishes the impact of the experience. In this workshop, you will examine the tenants Project Based Learning and a model for participatory action research and be guided through a step-by-step process for incorporating project-based learning with a social justice lens into your program or classroom.
