“Project-based learning is a dynamic classroom approach in which students actively explore real-world problems and challenges and acquire a deeper knowledge.”
(Edutopia)

“Projects originate in mystery as complex problems in real-world contexts and settings related to the student’s interests and curiosities. Pre-packaged projects will not do.”
(Elliot Washor, Leaving to Learn, Big Picture Learning)
