Project-based learning as a dropout prevention tool?

The March 8 edition of the National Dropout Prevention Center Radio Webcast will feature Angela Wall, who will speak about project-based learning. 

Wall will discuss how project-based learning improves student engagement and how to implement it in schools with struggling students. Wall is the program head for the Industrial Systems Technology program at Wayne Community College in Goldsboro, N.C. and has served as a site coordinator for a National Science Foundation-funded partnership focused on project-based learning.

She will be joined by Bernard Green, a student at the Wayne School of Engineering, who will talk about how his education was affected by participation in project-based learning projects.
