  • Select activity Introduction

    Incorporating project-based learning (PBL) and community-based projects into English language courses provides students with meaningful, hands-on experiences that deepen their language skills, while making a positive, tangible impact on their local communities. Projects can also promote a collaborative and student-centred process where teachers can empower their students to take ownership of their learning, apply language skills in real-world contexts, and develop 21st Century skills.
