Research on Project-Based Teaching Strategies for the Chinese Curriculum of International Baccalaureate (IB) based on the SAMR Model

In the digital era, there have been significant changes in international students’ Chinese language learning patterns and methods. The integration of information technology and project-based teaching not only promotes the demand for applications and learning media but also provides new opportunities to enhance student’s critical thinking abilities. However, project-based teaching of information technology and Chinese is prone to the misconception of seeking the most suitable application or learning medium for verification. The SAMR (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification and Redefinition) model is an educational model based on Bloom’s taxonomy of educational objectives for “creative” teaching. This information technology-integrated teaching method provides students with diverse learning experiences. The Chinese language course of the International Baccalaureate (IB) aims to cultivate students’ profound understanding of literature, language, and culture by providing a critical exploration learning experience in the field of language and literature. It encourages students to explore similarities and differences between different cultures, delve into topics or works of interest, and conduct independent language and literature research projects. The project-based learning approach helps students meet their further academic research and personal growth skills needs, cultivating them as language users and lifelong learners who are willing to explore and have critical thinking skills. The application exploration of the SAMR model in project-based teaching proposes relevant suggestions for the integration of information technology and Chinese teaching in the digital era and provides some new focus points for effective strategies and paths of IB Chinese teaching: encouraging teachers to improve students’ skills in collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking (4C) through advanced teaching at four different levels of SAMR model, flexible use of teaching rounds, creation of GRASPS teaching evaluation scenarios, and design of conceptual driving tasks, in order to achieve the improvement of language and literature construction and application abilities, and further promote the collaboration and autonomy of IB Chinese project-based learning process.

Teaching English for Academic Purposes Through Project-Based Learning Method and Process Writing Approach

English for Academic Purposes (EAP) has gained more prominence in the field of English Language Teaching (ELT) since its initiation in the 1980s. In Malaysia, a country where English is its second language, EAP is widely taught in many tertiary institutions. This is due to its main aim which is to focus on the communicative skills needed for academic purposes in formal educational settings to accomplish academic tasks such as delivering presentations, participating in academic discussions as well as writing academic and research essays. At USIM, EAP BIA3012 is a compulsory course introduced with the aim to develop students’ English proficiency and provide students with appropriate skills demanded in completing academic tasks at the tertiary level. The EAP course conducted at USIM employs the project-based learning (PBL) method, coupled with the process writing approach. This paper describes the application of both approaches in the implementation of EAP. The research project assigned to students will be explicated through its anatomy or structure according to PBL. Additionally, process writing, an approach to teaching writing that allows the students to undergo a journey of co-constructing texts under the guidance of the teachers, will also be clearly explained. In particular, this paper will outline the complicated and non-linear nature of writing shown through these elements—generating ideas, focusing, reviewing, evaluating, structuring, drafting—which are taught and completed through a project assigned to students.

Project-based EFL learning at the tertiary level: Research, translation, creativity and interaction

Project-based learning (PBL) involves real-life-based use of investigative, interactive and creative tasks that extend beyond the classroom and culminate in authentic products. PBL can be used as a means to promote tertiary-level EFL learning, yet there is little research on the issue in Turkish higher education contexts. This study develops a PBL model with research, translation, creativity and interaction components for tertiary-level EFL preparatory class students and investigates its perceived effectiveness. The data were collected by questionnaires and interviews and analyzed through statistical and thematic analyses. The findings showed that there were significant differences in the students’ perceived competence in oral presentation skills, speaking fluency, speaking confidence, creativity in writing, creativity in visual or audiovisual output production, and time management before and after the treatment. Besides, thanks to PBL, the students were stated to experience research writing and translation. However, the PBL process was also found to be challenging due to the heavy workload. It is suggested the model be used in all kinds of EFL contexts including tertiary-level classes.

Effects of Interaction between Peer Assessment and Problem-Solving Tendencies on Students’ Learning Achievements and Collaboration in Mobile Technology-Supported Project-Based Learning

Project-based learning (PBL) aims to foster students’ problem-solving ability and collaboration by engaging them in completing a project in teams. Researchers have indicated the importance of guiding students to make comparisons and reflection during the process of project-based learning. Therefore, the present research proposed a peer assessment-based PBL (PA-PBL) approach to boost students’ PBL performances. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed approach, a quasi-experiment was conducted for 3 weeks. A total of 110 secondary students were divided into an experimental group learning with the PA-PBL approach and a control group learning with the conventional PBL (C-PBL) approach. The students’ problem-solving tendency, learning achievement, and collaboration tendency were evaluated. The experimental results indicated that the PA-PBL approach improved the students’ learning achievement, especially for those students with higher problem-solving tendency. In terms of collaboration tendency, it was found that the PA-PBL approach benefited the lower problem-solving tendency students more than the C-PBL approach, while there was no difference between the higher problem-solving tendency students in the two groups. The experimental results also indicated that the PA-PBL approach could better enhance students’ problem-solving tendencies than the C-PBL approach.
