Can other teaching methods be used along with Project Based Learning?
• Yes, PBL can incorporate all traditional teaching tools and methods, including lecture, text-books, and conventional assessments. However, the nature of PBL demands that students spend the bulk of the project actively working in groups or individually to research the question and come to conclusions. Also, the advantage of PBL is that it requires students to use specific skills, such as collaboration, teamwork, time and task management, or presentation skills, to conclude a project successfully. These skills cannot be practiced or learned through traditional transmission models of education.
