Greenville Journal-Project Based Learning

The Greenville Journal is a described as a "Community Journal" and provides readers with insights and news about life, education, and businesses in the Greenville Area. The front page of the October 4th edition caught my eye. I wanted to share the article with you since it's focus is on Project Based Learning.

The following quote stresses the value and importance of project based learning, “Project-based learning changes the answers to questions,” said DeeDee Washington, Greenville County Schools’ associate superintendent for academics. “Students have the opportunity for a voice. Students have the opportunity for choice. It requires a lot of planning and integration across content areas. Teachers become facilitators rather than dispensers of knowledge.”
