Project-Based Learning Process
The process starts with a driving question and has students (People of God's Story) engage in a real-world problem or task (real work). All of the learning, lessons, and assignments (forms self) continue to focus on the project to answer the driving question.
Once the project is completed, students present and celebrate their learning in a variety of ways: sharing with community partners, presenting findings, hosting an event or tournament, creating a product, opening a gallery, doing a performance, etc (shapes the world).
While working on projects, students are diving deeply into the subject matter, and are also developing character, refining the HDCH Habits of a Graduate (Compassion, Creativity, Resilience, Competence, and Reflection), and seeing their place in God's story.
Project-Based Learning allows students to refine and use their new knowledge and skills as they practice living out our mission statement - "Cultivating character through learning for a life of service to God."
