Unit 1: Project-Based Learning

In order to understand the pedagogy behind coaching to a rubric, a short introduction to Project-based learning is important. TRIO ThinkQuest is a project-based learning activity. Once you have completed Unit 1, you will be directed to Unit 2 where the TTQ Rubric will be discussed in detail.

There are two lessons within Unit 1 which address Objectives 1 & 2.

Lesson/Objective 1:
Given a checklist with characteristics of project-based learning, trainees will define project-based learning with one hundred percent accuracy.

Lesson/Objective 2 :
Given the instructional program on the coaching process for project-based learning, trainees will contrast coaching to teaching with one hundred percent accuracy.
