11. A project-based approach
Project-based learning “was superior when it
comes to long-term retention, skill development
and satisfaction of students and teachers, while
traditional approaches were more effective for
short-term retention as measured by
standardized board exams.”
Strobel, J. , & van Barneveld, A. (2009)
