¶ … Learning: Educational Influence and Technique
Project-Based Learning
With the advancement of new teaching and learning techniques such as Outcomes-Based Education, there has been a revolution in the education industry. Students and their needs have become the center of the education effort. With new paradigms such as project-based learning and problem-based learning, these students are prepared for the job market with an efficiency that has never before been the case. The effect this has on education in general is that both teachers and learners benefit from the activities in the classroom. Students are more motivated, and teachers understand the needs and problems faced by students better.
Project-based learning is then used in the classroom by giving students projects that they are expected to complete. These projects are relevant to both the subject field, and the profession targeted by the subject. In this way students learn through practice the various techniques required for a certain subject field as well as the related work environment. Projects can also be assigned intermittently on an individual and a group basis. By working in groups, students learn to collaborate in a team effort, while leadership skills can also be learned. When individual projects are assigned, this can teach students and effective work ethic, and to improve their own skills in a certain subject field.
Project-based learning can be combined with problem-based learning in the classroom. By being presented with problems related to the projects they are working on, students learn to develop problem-solving skills. This is important not only for a work environment, but for all aspects of adult life that students face when leaving school.
Project- and problem-based learning have become essential components of the education industry. At school students are taught to develop skills that are directly related to a wide variety of subject areas, as well to general adult life.
Education Project-Based Assessment Project-Based Learning (PBL), by design, lends itself to differentiated instruction. It uses a student-centric approach-- an extended learning process that incorporates inquiry and challenge to stimulate the growth and mastery of skills (Prescott, 2012). PBL allows teachers great flexibility in meeting the needs of students, handling assessments and managing daily instruction. As brought out by the course videos, teamwork and collaboration occurs regularly in PBL projects. Students of
Learning that is imparted through an educational institution or training company within the workplace setting in known as Work-based learning (WBL). WBL is administered by an external teacher in professional capacity and supervised by an employee of the company where WBL is imparted. An exhaustive literature review indicates that it was only after Moser report's shocking revelations, regarding lack of literacy, language, and numeracy skills in one out every five
Conversely there are the instructors who see in-class sessions as essential for the teaching of the most abstract, complex concepts. Bridging these two polarizing perspectives on how to successfully teach the most challenging material in a course is the need for defining scaffolding performance objectives by student to measure the effectiveness of distance learning personalized instruction (Halttunen, 2003). The intermediating of these two extremes shows that for the most

Teaching Historical Events to Student With Disabilities Our perspective of the concept of the passing of time and our place in the history of the world is important to us towards our growth and evolution. Lacking a sense of time and space, one is prone to be disconnected with the universe. While it can be frightening to be trapped in a moment in time and not be cognizant of the position
Figure 2: "Information System for Geography" (GIS) 2. The Map View: A GIS consists of a set of intelligent maps and other views depicting features and feature relationships on the earth's surface. Students can use GIS to support their queries, make analyses, and edit information. With GIS, they can create maps of underlying geographic information and utilize the maps as "windows into the database," as noted by figures (3 & 4). Figure
