Beschreibung:Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a method that allows students to learn through the development of different authentic tasks that result in projects by working collaboratively. Therefore, this paper first describes what PBL is, its main characteristics, and the benefits of implementing it as a way to improve 21st century skills such as collaborative work, student agency, problem solving, critical thinking, and different life skills in oral communication courses. Second, it provides a variety of ideas on how to implement it in the classroom. When this methodology is implemented, students show a greater understanding of the topics that are part of their courses and become more engaged, autonomous, and empowered. That is why PBL is highly recommended to help students learn by doing and hence build knowledge in an authentic way.
