Project-Based Learning as a Tool for Sounding Perception and Developing Socio-Emotional Skills in 4th-Grade Students

Abstract

This reports an analysis of the application of Project-Based Learning (PBL) methodology with a group of 17 students of the 4th grade of an elementary school at Taubaté town, São Paulo State, Brazil. The objective was to teach concepts related to noise pollution in order to educate kids committed to the environment. The project was developed with teams using eight stages applied between April and June of 2018. The social-emotional skills were observed at all stages, which contributed to the development of the concept of pollution. Although some students had shown difficulties to work in teams, they finished their activities and recognized their needs to improve collaboration. In addition, they also understood the dangers of noise pollution and the importance of changing habits in their daily lives.

Using the project method in the mathematical education of students – future ecologists

“…Authors [22; 25] describe environmental projects implemented at universities in São Paulo (Brazil). Using mathematical methods, the authors studied the reuse of water and its saving [22], as well as the harmful effects of noise pollution for the environment [25].…”

Improving Speaking Skills Using Quizizz Media and Project Based Learning Model For 9th Graders

“…Despite its importance, English proficiency remains a challenge for many, including Indonesian students (Alvina Indana Zulfa, 2022). Technological advancements offer pedagogical methods designed to enhance the learning experience, especially in developing speaking skills (Angélica M. M. et al, 2019), (Fadhilawati, 2021). However, there's a paucity of empirical data on the effectiveness of combining digital tools with PJBL, a gap this research aims to fill.…”
