4. 12 timeless project-based learning resources.   


Inquiry –based learning is a teaching model that allows students to construct their own understanding and knowledge base upon answering a question through exploring/researching and collaboration with others. The module sources for this week are based on the concept of PBL. The website concept to classroom is basically A workshop that answers the questions of what is inquiry-based learning? How does it differ from to the traditional approach? What does that have to do with my classroom? What are the benefits of inquiry-based learning? The website also gave us an overview of some real-life examples of inquiry-based learning being used in the classrooms. The next tab entitled exploration provided tools and activities to help us as learners build upon the knowledge that we supposedly gained the first two sections the last tab of the webpage implementation is basically a recap of all the principles of inquiry and gives us a framework for designing our own inquiry –based learning assignment. The next module resource was an article entitled 20 questions to guide inquiry-based learning. The article basically stated a list of questions that teachers should ask themselves before actually creating an inquiry-based learning project. The peer-reviewed article that I chose talked about survey results regarding teacher perspectives and experience with project-based learning (PBL).  Attention was paid to teachers serving students with disabilities or giftedness. The article suggests PBL is perceived as an effective measure when working with the two groups of students, but while teachers are aware of PBL as an instructional strategy, they may lack a clear understanding of PBL methodology.
