1. Your research question

I came up with different questions and worked on to refine one of them and my final research question is “How effective is project base learning?”

1. A working title for your project

1. A summary of your project. Identify your topic and describe what you will be looking at

in terms of the topic. Include some key terms and additional questions that will guide your research. 

I plan to research the topic project base learning and write about the different ways it can be effective and be helpful. After going to my high school I have been curious about project base learning they have always used to teach students, during the last year I took a class that was math and a physics class, this class really showed me what PBL is, we learned a lot in that class and solved real-world problems. This is why I choose it to do my research on.    

1. A description of your purpose for working on this project. Why did you choose this topic? What do you hope to learn from this project?

I love the way that my teachers used PBL to teach at school, so many students loved it. I plan on interviewing some of my high school teachers and students to get a more understanding of the PBL system. Also do more research to find about other stories that are out there, as well as informative articles to teach me more about the topic to help me reach my goal of the essay.   I plan to have teachers and students as my audience. 

1. A discussion of the key challenges you will face or you imagine you will face. What concerns do you have regarding the research/project?

There’s going to be a lot of challenges I am going to face in this project, biggest challenge is time, I don’t think we are given enough time to research and write an essay.  The second challenge for me is to set up times with teachers to interview, also finding really good resources is going to be hard.
