Many schools make use of structured projects that are designed to enhance student learning. These projects can be individual or collaborative, short- or long-term, or student- or teacher-initiated.
Projects often start with an open-ended idea or problem posed by a student or teacher. As G.S. Morrison points out (“Reggio Emilia,” 2010), “the key feature of a project is that it is a search for answers to questions about a topic worth learning more about, something the children are interested in.”
Projects can open up new avenues of exploration. They require lots of creative thinking and problem-solving. And, they can introduce material, questions, and opportunities that often provoke children to further explore issues and questions.
Many schools use project-based learning, in some form of another. Some schools make it a central part of their curriculum, such as Reggio Emilia schools and preschools. Others offer it as an option for specific students.
Many alternative and progressive schools offer project-based learning. In addition to Reggio schools, many Montessori and Waldorf schools have individual and group projects as a part of their curriculum.
Alternative schools depart from the mainstream. They offer a teaching approach, curriculum, and learning environment that differs from what you’ll find in most mainstream schools.
Many of these schools use projects as a way to promote personalized and collaborative learning, critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving. And this may be part of a major focus on experiential and interdisciplinary learning.
When used properly, projects can be an effective way to spark interest and lead to meaningful discussion, debate, and engagement. Students often find work stimulating and fruitful when it’s pursued with the aim of solving specific questions or problems.
