             As an aspiring teacher makes me  habit of applying some strategies that produce a greatest effect in my teaching process. As a future teacher, I should create a real world problem-solving situations by giving  questions and task that corresponds to two different framework of inquiry-based teaching: problem-based learning, which takes a problem but doesn't necessarily include a student project and project-based learning which involves complex tasks in some form of student presentation and let them create an actual product.

            As I implement the project-based learning in the class, learners can improve their attitudes towards learning and it can also increase the retention of the learning. The following are also some benefits for the students as I use PBL in the class;
  • increase student control over his/her learning.
  • students (usually but not always) working in pairs or groups.
  • students can improve their problem-solving and collaboration skills.
  • helps students perform  better in high stakes test.
          To reach my goals in teaching using the PBL, I will deliver the content and choose the process much more critical and ultimate.  In doing so, i need to spend more time in planning and adjusting the curriculum. I plan to have a brainstorm  activities, tasks, and assessments that cover  range of learning preference abilities and interest to the students and help me to come up with the initial plan and also help me to be confident in my teaching strategies as a future teacher.
