Engage your students with projects
Summary
- Projects in your cohort based course ensure students leave with a meaningful artifact.
- Projects help students demonstrate and solidify their learnings.
- The Maven syllabus houses all your course projects and student submissions.
- Students can automatically share projects to the entire cohort community for peer feedback.
What are projects?
- Reflection: Students respond to an open-ended question to facilitate deeper thinking. They could write their response, share it in the community, or record a video.
- Step by step: Students solve a problem using a framework or template. This is great for reinforcing a framework or guiding students through a complicated process.
- Practice: Students repeat a skill to master it. This is useful for skills that benefit from repetition until you hit a certain threshold for mastery like: kicking a soccer ball 100x, practicing your scales on the piano, or typing until you hit a words-per-minute goal.
- Create: Students put their learning into practice, connect it to their work or life, and develop an original work. For example, if you were teaching a data visualization with Tableau course, you might ask your students to create a Tableau dashboard using publicly available datasets.
- Present: Students showcase their work. Students can present in live sessions (e.g., 'Demo Day') or via recorded videos posted to the community.
