Resumen
This report aims to investigate the effectiveness and impact of Project-Based Learning (PBL) on the holistic development of children from ages 7 to 8. PBL is an innovative educational approach that engages students in authentic, hands-on projects to develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, collaboration, and creativity. The report examines various dimensions of children's growth, including cognitive, social, emotional, and physical aspects. Key findings highlight that PBL positively influences children's cognitive abilities by fostering curiosity, self-directed learning, and knowledge application in real-world scenarios. The collaborative nature of PBL enhances social skills, including communication, teamwork, and leadership. Additionally, emotional intelligence and self-confidence are bolstered as children face challenges, receive constructive feedback, and experience the satisfaction of project completion. 1.
