2. In Project Based Learning, students go
through an extended process of inquiry in
response to a complex question, problem, or
challenge. Essential Elements of PBL include:
◦ Significant content
◦ 21th century competences
◦ In- Depth inquiry
◦ Driving question
◦ Need to know
◦ Voice and choice
◦ Revision and reflection
◦ Public audience
3. They are focused on “know how to do
something”. This methodology fits
perfectly in key competences.

competences-in-the-spanish-education-system
They are more motivating for students
(they learn because they need to solve
something)
They involve colaborative work (their
work depends on other´s people work,
something they will have to face in life)
4. CONS:
- Need of time to develop the different parts
of the project.
- The educational system is not flexible
enough for projects, so we have to adapt the
projects to the requirements of the school,
schedule, etc.
5. 1.-INTRODUCTION: Encourages them to do it.
2.-PROCESS: The explanation of every step,
every task they have to follow to get to the
final product.
3.-THE FINAL PRODUCT: this is not only all
the activities they have done, this is
something they have to ELABORATE.
4.-ASSESSMENT: It has to be clear from
scratch what is going to be important, what is
the aim and also what are the main aspects to
take into account.

9. In this part, you need to explain carefully to
your students what they have to do and how.
This part involves researching and also
activities that led them to elaborate the final
product.

13. The final product is what you want to achieve
having finished all the previous tasks. The
main point about projects is precisely this
one: this is not a bunch of disconnected task;
every different task led you to a step in the
process to create SOMETHING: It can be a
poster (a traditional one or a poster online
using Glogster), a podcast (for example, an
interview on a radio programme), a exhibition
on a museum or on a tourism agency
exhibition, it can be a story book.

Storybook
Diary

19. Three different tools to assess the
project:
◦ 1.- Assessement of the students´s work:
Rubric:
.
20. 2.- Peer to Peer assessment: involves paying more
attention to the other student´s work, taking the
responsability of deciding whether it is right or not.
3.- Self- assessment tool: Students reflect on their
own work and tend to be more critical with
themselves than with other students
21.
22. Peer to peer assessment: everyone assess
other student´s work. As they have to reflect
on other´s students and they know the
teacher is going to take their marks into
account, they take it seriously.

24. Using blog, or websites like sribd, slideshare,
you can also borrow some ideas that can
inspire you to create your own project for
your specific students or just carry out that
project.
