Schools don't emulate life in the real world. Yet we use them to prepare students for life in the real world. Yes, schools teach skills and knowledge that can be applied in real world situations. But a gap exists between the acquisition of those skill and the application of those skills. How can we close this gap? Project-based Learning or PBL is one of the many paradigms that can greatly increase student engagement and learning while bridging the gap between skill acquisition and application.
