EFFECT OF PROJECT-BASED APPROACH ON TEACHING AND LEARNING AT HIGHER LEVEL

Abstract

Teaching and learning are affected by the project-based approach at higher levels of education. The study by Blumenfeld (1991) found that project-based instruction enhanced student involvement and enthusiasm compared to conventional teaching methods. Information communication technology skills were developed in students through project-based teaching. A qualitative study investigated how project-based teaching enhances teaching abilities and information communication technology (ICT) abilities in students of master’s in education (M.Ed.), at the private University of Karachi. During analysis, observations were used to record the improvement of teaching pedagogy and students' information communication technology (ICT) skills during analysis. Five students from a private university in Karachi were surveyed for data collection. Qualitative data was collected via an open-ended survey and observation tool. Data analysis, classification, and interpretation were the conclusions of the investigation. There are significant effects on teaching and learning in higher education, according to the research findings.
