Project based learning

The Learning CommonsSwitch from teaching to learning
Everyone is engaged in the learning process
Cross curricular perspective
Knowledge, Thinking, Communication, and Application are foundations for learning
With technology-enabled learning partnerships we parallel the social ways by which today’s students are naturally choosing to learn and network.
Technology is having a positive impact on knowledge innovation – it is engaging our students and connecting with their urge to investigate and create.
School libraries facilitate knowledge construction with inquiry-based learning by designing creative opportunities and non-traditional performance tasks. Students need the opportunity to communicate their knowledge and understanding creatively.
