Project-based Learning: A Pathway to Language, Literacy, and Employability with Patsy Egan

In adult ESL settings, we not only develop students' language and literacy skills, but we also prepare them for college, the workforce, and deeper community involvement. It's a lot to do in limited timeframe and with limited resources! Project-based learning offers a way to organize instruction into meaningful units that is authentic, relevant, and results in a tangible product. It is an instructional 'basket' into which we can easily pack language development, English language arts and math standards, as well as employability skills. Join this webinar to hear more about using project-based learning in adult ESL classrooms.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I have recently started teaching college students and wanted to implement an approach where they practice critical thinking, collaboration and most of all, use English as means of communication to get things done. This is just perfect and will make my classes more interesting, relevant and most of all, useful for their development.

I also impressed with all of the life skills being l armed from the gardening, o the writing, the collaboration, the video taping and editing.

Teachers who think their role is to tell the students what they need to know are going to absolutely hate this method. Especially those who feel threatened by anything which calls their teacher centred methods into question will not be able to adapt to this method at all.
If you don't like taking risks or learning along with your students then this is not the method for you.
Students who have learned to shut up, only answer questions, and generally sit back and let the teacher do all the work are not going to like this method because they have no chance to hide. So expect some resistance.
However, the results are amazing if you have the right attitude.
