WHAT DO I NEED TO REMEMBER?1. Education must be informed by critical thought
and applied knowledge

Learning experience used in the context of students working in problems, project or products thatgenuinely engage and motivate them to do well.
1. They establish what is thought
2. Their inflexibility reduces possible content
3. They tend to constrict learning to multiple choice

focusing on the disconnectedness between the limited range of skills fought in the classroom and what the students will face in the real world.

and weaknesses and to set their own goals
to further their learning
