Project-Based Science Instruction: A Primer

The Science Teacher—November 2008

Project-based science (PBS) instruction can simply be defined as a student-centered science teaching approach, in which students produce tangible learning outcomes by posing and answering research questions that are relevant to their own lives and communities. In a PBS classroom, students are encouraged to take responsibility for their own learning. This article provides an introduction to PBS instruction for both beginning and veteran science teachers who are interested in implementing this approach in their classrooms.
