While it targets grades 4-9, it is editable and easily adaptable to any age group. The process goes like this: 1.) Students select a new task or skill they want to learn about. Some examples of past choices include dressmaking, creating a video game, learning an instrument, cooking a 3-course meal for their family, and building a cubby house. 2.) Students research and complete the task within a specified time frame. 3.) As they progress, they keep an online diary of their learning journey outlining their successes and failures. 4.) When they have sufficiently learned their new skill, students then teach it family member or friend to show them what they have learned. 5.) At the conclusion of the project, students put together a presentation outlining their learning journey. This includes videos, photos, and feedback from family members and friends. They will also assess each other in accordance with a peer assessment rubric. While this makes a great introduction to project management, time management, and presentation skills, students will come away from this with much more. This project also teaches grit, builds confidence, and encourages students to learn from and push through failure instead of fearing it. Indeed, success and failure are unimportant with this task. The true value lies in recording and learning from their successes and failures while sharing that knowledge with others. Everything you need is included and completely editable.
