Long lectures can feel outdated, and very few can confess to enjoying a lengthy lecture more than a hearty snooze, especially when modern tools allow us to turn ideas into reality. Fortunately, a recent term has been seeing more and more proclivity in the educational field, that of Project-Based Learning, or PBL. Project-based learning (PBL) offers a more engaging and hands-on approach, helping students truly absorb complex concepts by applying them in real-world scenarios. To better assist students in exploring this type of learning (or more than the insides of their eyelids), we\u2019ve compiled together<strong> three PBL websites<\/strong> that bring control into the hands of the learner and allow critical thinking in a more nuanced light.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><\/b><b>1. Instructables\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A fundamental aspect of PBL is applying real-world solutions to real-world problems. This application doesn\u2019t have to be big-picture stuff like solving global warming or anything huge! In fact, the Instructables website has many different DIY projects that cover just about any scenario, whether crafting your own<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instructables.com\/20W-RGB-Video-Light-Fully-3D-Printable\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RGB light for videography<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or finding a cool new <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instructables.com\/Taste-the-Rainbow-Beetroot-Halwa-in-Vibrant-Red\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dessert recipe<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to share with friends! For any enterprising I-can-make-this-at-home-for-half-the-cost types, this is the utopia for you! Just be aware that a lot of these may require a 3D printer, so make sure to track your ingredients if you don\u2019t have ready access to one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Link to website: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instructables.com\/projects\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.instructables.com\/projects<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>2. Hackster.io\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are people in the world who can compute and code endless streams of software, transforming the 1s and 0s of our numeric language into space travel and solar energy conversion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And then, some people blow up hot dogs in the microwave because they accidentally set the timer for 20 minutes instead of two.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hackster.io is an incredible resource for those interested in the intersection of software and hardware. An outsider can see that much care and dedication have been harnessed to create these complicated designs. While it may not be something that everyone will enjoy or understand, it definitely is something someone will enjoy and understand. So if you\u2019re the kind of person who feels at home designing<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hackster.io\/team-bangla\/human-following-robot-22f7e3\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">human-following robots<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hackster.io\/whitney-knitter\/getting-started-with-the-sdr-zmod-on-eclypse-z7-gnu-radio-24bdd3\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGetting Started with the SDR Zmod on Eclypse Z7 + GNU Radio\u201d,<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> a language that seems to elude any Google Translate ciphering attempt, Hackster\u2019s got you covered!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Link to website: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hackster.io\/projects\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.hackster.io\/projects<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>3. Makezine<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the last entry here, we\u2019ve got a website similar in scope of Instructables: Makezine. Makezine is a maker-focused community that shares creative DIY projects emphasizing sustainability and improving lives.\u00a0 However, whereas Instructables had more individual-focused projects, these feature a fair amount of general-use projects that one could use to better others&#8217; lives. Examples include a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/makezine.com\/projects\/walk-this-way-diy-mobility-walker\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DIY Mobility Walker<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, crafting your own<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/makezine.com\/projects\/corsi-box-air-purifier-join-the-air-movement\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Corsi Box Air Purifier<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and even a<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/makezine.com\/projects\/diy-mobile-handwash-station\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">mobile handwash station<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">! There\u2019s certainly something for everyone here.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Link to website: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/makezine.com\/projects\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/makezine.com\/projects<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the coolest things someone can understand from these websites is the fact that there is truly a passion project for everyone out there. It doesn\u2019t matter who you are or what you\u2019re looking for, you\u2019ll find something up your alley.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As different as we may all be, however, humanity shares this fundamental need to explore, to learn and grow. This skillset allows us to venture past the boundaries that have halted all other known species. And the best part is, from the world\u2019s point of view, we\u2019re barely in our first year of progress. These enormous leaps and advancements in technology are the baby steps of mankind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So even if it\u2019s just a simple thing, like learning how to cook rice or play racquetball, keep learning. As long as we all do that, we\u2019ll be that much closer to taking our next step in the library of knowledge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By Noah Moster<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you want more resources on the topic of <\/span><\/i><b><i>Project-Based Learning<\/i><\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">?
