Educators! Put the “construct” in constructivism by sharing the hands-on projects you do with your students. Share your project-based learning skills with thousands of like-minded teachers searching for engaging academic projects to supplement their curriculum. Help make learning relevant and engaging and fun.
We want educators to show off the hands-on projects they use with their pupils. Post anything that someone might teach in a formal setting. This contest is open to Instructables, Photos, Videos, and Guides with a learning objective explicitly stated in the introduction.
Multiple entries are accepted, but each entrant can only win one prize. Contest is open to entries from US, Canada [excluding Quebec], UK, Australia, the Netherlands, China, and Belgium. Contest closes for entries at 11:59pm PT, June 4, 2012.
