The IMPACT of Project-Based Learning on our Learners
As learner-centered practitioners, I imagine we are all firm believers in the benefits, and postive outcomes project-based experiences have on our students. But what about our learners? Do they feel the same way?
In this short podcast interview, I chat with two learners, Stanley and Flora at experimental PBL School VIS Better World Lab in Taiwan to get their take on how project-based experiences have IMPACTED them. From how they have grown as people, to how it has affected their view of learning.
But it's not all rainbows and butterflies. We also discuss PBL's shortcomings, and the challenges they have faced adapting to this new model. Through a learner's lens, you will gain new insight into:
- The major differences between PBL and a traditional approach
- How to support project teams that collaborate and illuminate invidividual interests
- Supporting students in the process of investigation
- The IMPACT project-based experiences has on learners
- Potential pitfalls of project-based learning, and how to overcome them
- Adopting the mindest it takes to transition from classroom teacher to a project facilitator

Oscar and Flora's Bio:
Flora Lin has been a student in VIS experimental High School for 2 years, over which she has not only attended but been selected team leader for many of the PBL projects that she has been involved in. Stanley Pang is currently in 11th grade and finishing up his first year in VIS. Despite only being here for year Stanley has already achieved many great accomplishments like winning the Entrepreneurship award as well as starting his own gym club, of which he leads many of his classmates onto the journey to building better fitness habits Together, Stanley and Flora have proved themselves to be strong VIS as well as strong PBL students. Together they have not only been selected leader in their PBLs and won recognition for their in-school performance. They have also entered a business competition together and got 8th place, out of hundreds of other applicants. Stanley and Flora are both hardworking and diligent students who aim to always put their best effort both in and out of school. We hope that their interview provides listeners more insight into what PBL is like and inspires them to learn more about incorporating PBL in their schools in the future.
