Project-Based Learning in O2 & Co-op Education

Project-based Learning in O2 & Co-op Education explores how teachers at Forest Heights Community School structure and facilitate project-based learning in Co-operative Education and Options and Opportunities classrooms. Like inquiry-based learning, PBL is rooted in authentic real-world problems requiring students to apply skills and their understanding of content to complete projects that are meaningful and significant. In this segment, we see students working at school and in the community on a wide range of projects arising from curriculum outcomes. Although O2 and Co-operative Education classes are highlighted, project-based learning has wide application across subject areas and grade levels.
