IBSC Member Story: The Range Project |
|
|
Scotch College (Australia) in Perth knows the world awaiting our students is becoming increasingly complex, dynamic, and unpredictable. To thrive, students must be creative, adaptable, and able to transfer skills from one context to another with relative ease. The Range Project features lessons from those who have made a habit of expanding their range to go beyond an area of specialization, gain their own interdisciplinary understanding of the world, and discover their passion in the process. Watch episode 14 to hear from students about the pros and cons of project-based learning, student motivation, and how the learning journey gets enhanced when the teacher becomes a student. Learn more. |
