The project is focused on teaching students key knowledge and understanding derived from standards, and success skills including critical thinking and problem solving. As a motif project, it crosses at least three disciplines, and aligns with a Positive DigCit value.
The project is based on a meaningful problem or a question to answer, at the appropriate level of challenge for students, which is operationalized by an open-minded, engaging driving question.
The project involves an active, in-depth process over time, and in which students generate questions, find and use resources, ask further questions, and develop their own answer.
The project has a real-world context, uses real-world processes, tools, and quality standards, makes a real impact, and/or is connected to students’ own concerns, interest, and identities.
The project includes processes for students to give and receive feedback on their work, in order to revise their ideas and products or conduct further inquiry.
The project requires students to demonstrate what they learn by creating a product that is presented or offered to people beyond the classroom.
