Project-Based Learning Framework
The program emphasizes project-based learning as a core pedagogical approach. Students are required to complete a series of mini-projects throughout their academic journey, culminating in a final capstone project. These projects are designed to integrate theoretical knowledge with practical application.
Mini-projects are typically completed in teams and are evaluated based on creativity, research, and presentation skills. The final capstone project is a comprehensive, long-term initiative that allows students to address a real-world educational challenge. Students select their projects in consultation with faculty mentors and are guided through the process of research, implementation, and evaluation.
The evaluation criteria for these projects include the clarity of objectives, relevance to educational theory, feasibility of implementation, and impact on learning outcomes. Students are encouraged to collaborate with external partners, including schools, NGOs, and government agencies, to ensure their projects have real-world relevance.
