Project-based Learning for the 21st Century Student
Science instruction
NSTA states that school laboratory investigation (also referred to as a lab) is defined as an experience in the laboratory, classroom, or the field that provides students with opportunities to interact directly with natural phenomena or with data collected by others using tools, materials, data collection techniques, and models (NRC 2006, p. 3). Effective teaching strategies for science students include: Manipulation strategies will enable students to experience science by becoming active learners who participate in building their own understanding, Technology-enhanced instruction, including simulations, enables students to manipulate variables and quickly see the results (Explore Learning).
Inquiry-based learning provides opportunities to analyze data and encourages deep understanding.
