Inside Constructivism:

Project-based learning
Project-based learning allows students to use inquiry-based methods to engage with issues and questions that are rich, real, and relevant to their lives. It emphasizes learning activities that are long term, interdisciplinary, and student-centered. Students form a learning community that focuses on critical thinking.
Students engage in activities that are valued in the real world, manage their own task and time, work as part of a team, and communicate with adults and experts. They drive the accumulation of content knowledge and thus remember what they learn.
Project-based learning allows for alternative approaches that address student’s individual differences variations in learning styles, intelligences, and abilities and disabilities.
Web-based tools add the ability to communicate and collaborate with the world outside the classroom easily and at no cost beyond the technology. Web 2.0 tools engage the students in finding and analyzing resources themselves and, because the web has almost limitless information, also allow them to create social networks in order to interact, share information, and learn collaboratively.
