BBCOACH PROJECT is interesting!

Project-based learning is slowly gaining traction. I’ve also started to hear about the efforts being made by school boards across the country.

BBCoach Project is a web contest that has been running since 2003, and the way it works is exactly the way Project Based Learning works. It is a very convenient learning environment where you can experience the quintessence of PBL without having to do any research, just by experiencing the contest.

This year, the Academic Coaching Society was established. BBCoach Project is also open to members of the workforce as learning coaches. It’s all about providing a place to practice learning coaching.

In addition, BBCoach Project takes care of the communication log of the project period, which project management considers important. In order to avoid a crisis as soon as possible, it is very important to keep a record of the flow of such communication.

This is a great contest because it gives you the opportunity to experience the same work process as a working person from childhood.

The PBL contest was held again this year!

The 12th BBCoach Project contest, which provides a learning environment for project-based learning as active learning, was held at Keio University in Mita, Minato-ku, Tokyo, on Saturday, March 28, 2015, from 1-5 p.m.

The junior creators, ranging from elementary school to junior and senior high school students, decided on the theme they wanted to pursue and worked together as a team to create and present the final content.

We also shared the activities of this team with sub-coaches from high school and above, and with coaches from the working world, who shared their valuable time of about six months with the society and the kids. The fact that the activity was recorded as a learning log on SNS is of great value.

The 13th annual BBCoach Project for 2015 will also be launched this fall.
