Self-Directed Project-Based Learning
In this chapter, we’re going to explore software projects your students will develop from start to finish in a more self-directed fashion than in their previous projects. The project development process and your role in it will include the popular academic methodology project-based learning (PBL) for making student projects meaningful in a personal and educational sense. Also included will be the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), which is used in the professional world to best ensure successful projects. Throughout these projects, you’ll serve more as a facilitator than a teacher, supporting students as they need it and providing guidance as opposed to directing their learning.
