Pupils in Lower Secondary Schools in Central Vietnam Improve their Empathy towards Local People and Perception of Traditional Craft Village Preservation through Project-based Learning

چکیده
“Project-based learning (PBL) is a model that organizes learning around projects”(Thomas p.1, 2000). Projects are authentic tasks closely linked to learners' daily lives. By being engaged in projects, learners not only develop the 21st century skills but also promote their awareness of and care about surrounding environment and people. This research examines how the pupils in two lower secondary schools in Quang Nam, a province in Central Vietnam, develop their empathy towards the local people and improve their perception of preserving three traditional craft villages (sedge mat making, blacksmith and noodle making) when they participate in the UNESCO-funded project-based learning project.
