Almulla, Mohammed Abdullatif – SAGE Open, 2020
The prevalence of project-based learning (PBL) has increased significantly, contributing to serious discussions about its advent. PBL's critics doubt whether accentuating the practice supports teachers in using a technocratic method in education, instead of promoting instruction that is responsive to students' ideas. Thus, this study aims to…
