  15. Results • more experience in analysis (84.62%) • collaborate with colleagues on solving common tasks (53.85%) • more exchange and discussion (84.62%) • However, they have far less experience with find the learning resource (only 23.07% are familiar with learning by themself) and using the Internet to find peers for solving problems (only 38.46% answered positively). • Majority of them (53.85%) reported that they have learned as effectively as in traditional way, and 30.77% reported that they have learned more than in traditional way.

  16. Conclusion • Project-based learning helps students develop skills for living in a knowledge-based, highly technological society. • Students make effective use of IT as they produce a product, presentation, or performance • IT is integrated into the learning – students are NOT learning IT skills in isolation • technology is used to promote critical thinking and communication
