RESEARCH: A Review of the Research on Project-Based Learning
A review of the research on project-based learning.
This review covers research studies published between 1984 and 1999 conducted at the elementary and secondary levels that focus on project based learning, problem based learning, expeditionary learning, and problem based instruction. This review focuses on research on PBL practices that meet five criteria: centrality, driving question, constructivist investigations, autonomy, and realism. Key topics in this review include: definitions of Project-Based Learning, underpinnings of PBL research and practice, student characteristics and PBL, implementation challenges, and effectiveness research

Project-based learning (PBL) is a model that organizes learning around projects. According to the definitions found in PBL handbooks for teachers, projects are complex tasks, based on challenging questions or problems, that involve students in design, problem-solving,
This review found that project-based learning to develop students' creativity and interest in learning on the basis of their projects and shows that PBL can be a bridge for the gap in educational attainment.

Shepherd (1998) reports that problem-based learning can have a positive effect on students' acquisition of critical thinking skills. Shepherd describes a nine-week project in which students work on defining and finding solutions for a problem related to an apparent housing shortage in six countries.

Project-based learning (PBL) is an active student-centred form of instruction which is characterised by students’ autonomy, constructive investigations, goal-setting, collaboration, communication and reflection within real-world practices.

Project-based learning (PjBL) is understood to be a promising approach that improves student learning in higher education. Empirical studies on project-based learning have been reviewed with a focus on student outcomes.
Introduction. In the evolving landscape of modern education, Project-Based Learning (PBL) stands out as a pivotal pedagogical approach, aligning with the demands of 21st-century learning environments.
The research hypotheses therefore measure the influence of the PBL method on collaborative learning, disciplinary subject learning, iterative learning, and authentic learning, which, in turn, engage students in learning.
