Project-based online learning experiences of pre-service teachers

Abstract

Student-centered learning approach, which embodies shifting the focus of instruction from teacher to student, actively engages students in their own learning process by incorporating their learning skills and interests. With the developments in instructional technologies making online learning widespread, the student-centered learning approach has found the opportunity to transition from theory to practice. How project-based learning, which is one of the best application areas of student-centered learning, can be realized in online learning environments and the views of pre-service teachers about this experience are the research subjects of this study. Conducted as a descriptive case study, this study investigates the views and experiences of 55 Computer and Instructional Technologies Education Department students towards application of project-based learning in an online course. Data gathered through close-ended Likert type questionnaire, open-ended questionnaire and self-evaluation reports revealed that project-based learning method provided learners with gains in terms of comprehension of course content through hands-on experience, developing research skills, improving collaboration and group work skills, and creating something by making use of their imagination and creativity in a fun way.

A project-based learning model in interpreting course

“…In this study, the development of the online learning model uses the type of development research or it is well-known as Research and Development (R&D). The research and development method is a research method that is carried out to produce a certain product and test the effectiveness of the product (Sugiyono, 2019). In this study, the researcher develops a project-based learning model and validate it so that it can be applied in the Interpreting course.…”

“…The research and development model that was carried out in this study adapted the Dick and Carey research and development model. This research was developed by Walter Dick, Lou Carey and James O. Carey in (Sugiyono, 2019). The stages of the research and development in this study are as follows:…”

Improving students’ metacognitive abilities and creative thinking skills through STEM-based in online learning

“…Besides, adjusting the results of the preliminary and the five characteristics were carried out to the 2013 curriculum so that products (learning tools) could be more easily implemented at the level of junior high schools in Indonesia. Students were conditioned to actively interact with learning materials and carry out various learning activities and get feedback about what they were learning (Taskiran, 2021;Ylostalo, 2020). The design phase produced the first prototype of product (STEM-based learning tools).…”

“…Hal ini merujuk pada beberapa penelitian yang menyatakan bahwa kolaborasi adalah salah satu keterampilan kunci dalam pembelajaran Abad 21 (Boholano, 2017;Chu et al, 2016). Lebih dari itu, guru juga perlu terlibat lebih jauh terhadap kegiatan kolaboratif sebelum mereka merancang pembelajaran kolaboratif untuk siswa (Fujii, 2016;Taskiran, 2021).…”
