Kalenkoski, Charlene Marie; Pabilonia, Sabrina Wulff – Education Economics, 2017

We use data from the combined Child Development Supplement (CDS) and the Transition to Adulthood Survey…

Project-based learning (PBL) is a teaching approach where students engage in the investigation of real-world problems through their inquiries. Studies found considerable support for PBL on student performance and improvement in grades K-12 and at the collegiate level. However, fewer studies have examined the effects of PBL at the collegiate level…
