How to implement Project-Based Learning in my work? (Carcarás Group)

         First of all, the teachers should get in mind that the most important thing is to be able to have a mindset, because project-based learning is kind of approach which the student is the focus of attention. In this approach they (students) start real-world problems and challenges, simultaneously developing cross-curriculum skills while working in small collaborative groups.  "Questions may be the most powerful technology we have ever created. Questions and questioning allow us to make sense of a confusing world. They are the tools that lead to insight and understanding (MCKENZIE, 2008)”. So the teacher has to figure out a way to engage them in an interactive and practical work, they need to learn by doing. 

As we can see to use the project-based learning strategy teachers need to do more than pose a project, they need to be sure that their proposal has the potential to get some components in order to provide the students capacity to develop or improve some skills and abilities, for example teamwork, self-confidence, leadership, autonomy, entrepreneurship, respect, trust etc. 
         Significant content shows us that the problem must engage students working with an important content. A relevant thing that the teacher must pay attention is the technological world in which the students are, so they need to use 21st century skills, these skills should be focused on technological tools it will help the students participate in need to allow them to problem-solve and involve in critical thinking, creativity and collaborative work in order to be successful. Quality projects motivate students to learn and investigate. It happens by through giving the students voice and choice, teachers need to allow students to make decisions about how to investigate the problem and how to work together. The teacher can help facilitate this. The last but not the least important thing are reflection and revision which students will receive feedback about their progress.
