Passion projects are a bit of a buzz word and can be lots of fun for students to take part in – they get to choose what they study and also how the present it.
But are they learning?
When we create passion projects we need to make sure that there is:
- Challenge
- Limited amount of ‘googling’
- Questions that extend beyond the basic facts for more able students
I have used KAPLAN prompts to drive my students towards more challenge in their projects – to seek the how and the why and question why things just are!
