STUDENT PROJECTS
Research confirms that to be successful in today’s rapidly evolving and complex world, learners need to develop a broader set of knowledge and skills that go beyond academics.
Project Based Learning (PBL) prepares learners for academic, personal, and career success, and readies young people to rise to the challenges of the 21st century.
Campus K is the first project-based learning school in Chennai.
What is PBL?
Students work on a project over an extended period of time that spans from a couple of weeks to months, engaging them in solving real-world problems to exploring answers to complex questions. They demonstrate their knowledge and skills by developing a product or building a presentation that is tested in front of a real audience. For every project, learners get feedback from experts who mentor and share their experiences with them.
As a result, learners develop deep knowledge in their field, as well as enhance their critical thinking abilities, creativity, and communication skills in the context of doing an authentic, meaningful project.
