This group illustrates what project-based learning can look like, especially when digital tools help students break free from the confines of teacher-driven and classroom-bound instruction.
Multimedia Serves Youths' Desire to Express Themselves | Edutopia
High school students in California find their voice through multimedia and learn to make a difference through what they create and share
-
"Media is the language of kids," Torres adds, saying that students who may not take to learning by reading a textbook or listening to a lecture often jump at the chance to understand complex concepts by presenting finished products in the form of a film or a Web documentary or a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation.
State Project
Example project from the Developing 21st Century Literacy Skills course. The assignment is to develop a project where students will develop and demonstrate 21st century literacy skills. In this project, students create a multimedia presentation with information about their state as if they are working in the visitor's bureau and trying to convince tourists to visit.
Reinventing Project-Based Learning Ning
Ning community set up by the authors of Reinventing Project-Based Learning, used for a course. The group is currently dormant, but the archived discussions still have some interest and will likely provide some inspiration for the project-based learning with multimedia course I'm revising.

"What the animation does is it assists the children in visualizing the action," explains Mitchell, who teaches language arts enrichment classes. "The animation is a way of them developing the picture so they relate that to the writing, to what they hear, what they see, what they feel." Technology, she adds, "gives you one more way of teaching something."

"Looking for real-world relevance has to do with students being interested in what they do, knowing that it's useful outside of school," says Kaninau. "The experiences are not contrived or in isolation, but they're a part of a larger learning activity. Without those connections, it won't be meaningful, and it'll be forgotten tomorrow."

Half an Hour: Free Learning and Control Learning: On the So-Called Failure of Constructivist, Discovery, Problem-Based, Experiential, and Inquiry-Based Teaching
Text from Downes' presentation critiquing the Kirschner, Sweller, and Clark article. Downes goes through a number of Kirschner et al's arguments, showing the internal inconsistency, lapses of logic, and lack of evidence. Citations included.
Scaffolding and Achievement in Problem-Based and Inquiry Learning
A response to the Kirschner, Sweller, & Clark article, specifically focused on demonstrating that problem based learning and inquiry learning are highly scaffolded, not "minimally guided." Research is cited showing the effectiveness of PBL.
-
Paper cited by Stephen Downes in his critique of the KS&C article against constructivism. The authors argue that project-based learning and inquiry learning are not "minimally guided instruction" as argued by KS&C, but actually use a lot of scaffolding as "just-in-time" direct instruction.

Stephen Downes presentation refuting the Kirschner, Sweller, & Clark article criticizing constructivism. Includes an introduction to connectivism. One of the fundamental flaws in the KS&C article is that it assumes that all inquiry and problem-based learning methods are "minimally guided," but these methods always include scaffolding. KS&C call scaffolding "direct instruction" and don't include that as part of constructivism.

IWorlds Simulations
-
A different take on simulations--this is a physical location with a Star Trek TNG style bridge. It uses immersive problem based learning to teach teamwork and leadership. This looks like it would be a lot of fun.
