Learning objectives

This course on Project-Based Learning (PBL) aims to provide primary and secondary school teachers with:

 

  • an overview of project-based work to drive effective pedagogy

 

  • active participation in educational scenarios (e.g. interdisciplinary, STEAM or CLIL)

 

  • participation in project-based tasks and learning design

 

  • opportunities to try out Best Practice in 21st Century teaching skills

 

  • sharing and ideas exchange to network with EU colleagues

 

  • insights into how Ireland supports citizenship and UNESCO’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

 

  • opportunities to exchange ideas and develop links with other European teachers

Methodology & assessment

Our approach is hands-on, with a peer-to-peer shared learning approach, where trainers and participants work together as professionals, sharing roles as experts and co-learners.

We use carousel learning, peer presentations and teaching, lightening talks and open space technology, along with discussion and reflection on multimedia input from leading experts, real life examples and experiences.

We believe that every participant is capable of developing professionally throughout the teaching and learning processes. Assessment for learning is on-going, using reflective approaches and peer feedback on learning products produced in challenges and design tasks.

Participants are expected to make active contributions to shared input from leading experts, real life examples and experiences.

A European perspective from colleagues working in similar contexts will allow participants to take away practical outputs and learning plans to implement skills and strategies, as well as examples of project-based ideas for future learning and teaching.

We encourage and support participants to create a digital portfolio of resources and learning designs to cascade training into their schools, with a daily session of resource creation.

Feedback and further individual professional development action plans will be provided according to participant preferences.
