Task 3 - AnswersPBL is an instructional approach. It involves learning content and developing skills. In PBL, inquiry, creativity and relevance are essential because they make learning an active process. A good project begins with a compelling (/essential) question. In PBL, students resort to different sources such as community and global experts, online articles, and field research. PBL encourages artful thinking by getting students to create, craft, test, refine and present a high quality solution to an authentic audience. When students do PBL, they also practice their language skills, such as reading, writing, speaking, and listening. PBL prepares students for the world beyond school.PBL
