Module 3: Moving From Teacher-led to Student-led Lessons and Projects

This module of the STEM Projects Toolkit considers how to move from traditional teacher-led individual lessons to student-designed and student-led inquiry based lessons and projects. The emphasis is on guiding students and encouraging them to explore and research topics, actively participate in the learning process, collaborate and discuss, and then arrive at answers themselves.
