PRAFCE
Dear Distinguished Teachers,
As we all know that The MOET has been trying to reform the curriculum and school syllabus so that students
will have an update knowledge and skills to meet the demand of the future workforce. In addition, The MOET
has decreed the 26th Circular dated August 26th, 2020 to adapt the category to assess students with their own
competences. The MOET has re-confirmed the importance of learning foreign languages, especially English.
English is said to be the key to open the door to the world.
UNESCO has emphasized the four pillars of learning and long – life learning
LEARNING TO KNOW.
LEARNING TO DO.
LEARNING TO LIVE TOGHETR.
LEARNING TO BE.
You may wonder what PBL means.
Project -Based Learning (PBL) is a teaching method in which students learn by actively engaging in real-world
and personally meaningful projects. Students work on a project over an extended period of time – from a week
up to a semester – that engages them in solving a real-world problem or answering a complex question. They
demonstrate their knowledge and skills by creating a public product or presentation for a real audience.
As a result, students develop deep content knowledge as well as critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and
communication skills. Project Based Learning boost a contagious, creative energy among students and
teachers.
With an attempt to engage students in active learning, I would like to plan a project-based learning to support
the students of my classes 10A5, 10A7 to feel confident and motivated in learning.
I would like to express my sincere thanks to my colleagues in acknowledgement of their invaluable
contributions and comments.
