ICT can play a big part in project-based learning. The use of ICT
enhances the learning experience and allows learners make connections
to the outside world.
It gives learners a place to find resources and to create work products. Efficient management of available ICT during projects takes planning and organization.
Teaching is student-centered in this approach and the teacher's role is to provide direct instruction in consciously skilled ways and to structure problem tasks, guide student understanding, and support student collaborative projects. In this role teachers must have the skills to help students create, implement, and monitor project plans and solutions.
In addition teachers need to use assessment for learning as a basic principle guiding their practice.
Standard: Describe how collaborative, project-based learning and ICT can support student thinking and social interaction, as students come to understand key concepts, processes, and skills in the subject matter and use them to solve real-world problems.
