How We Implement Project Based Learning?

Teaching project-based learning does not have to be complicated and does not have to be exhaustive, it just has to be thoughtful and logical.

WhyMaker believes there are 6 features that make a great project-based learning experience for studes. We work with teachers to design and plan each of these 6 features for an actionable project with their students.

It is within the realm of possibility to create aculture change through embed project-based learning in ytour school, and WhyMaker can help make you lead the shift.
