THE PROJECT METHOD

“A project is a bit of real life experiences that has been imported into the school”
-BALLARD.
“A problematic act carried to its completion in its natural setting.”
-STEVENSON

This method is based on John Dewey’s philosophy of pragmatism. It is a modified form of “concentration of studies”. The main feature of the concentration of studies plan is that some subject is taken as the centre and all other subjects, as they arise are studied in connection with it.

It is based on the fact and that knowledge grows by application. It is correlate with natural correlation. It also said as learning by doing. Learner will get high satisfaction as he is discovering on his own.

To complete any project we have to follow the following five steps.

1. Providing a situation
2. Choosing and purposing
3. Planning
4. Execution
5. Judging.

Ther is no rigidity about the steps.
