What is the Ford PAS approach to teaching and learning?

10

Ford PAS uses a hands-on, project- and inquiry-based approach to teaching and learning. Rather than introducing students to facts, definitions, and terminology and then allowing students to solve related problems, Ford PAS modules pose issues for students to explore. Students then acquire information and develop skills in the context of investigating those issues, both individually and in groups, with guidance from the teacher. Students apply the knowledge, skills, and understanding that they acquire through the module’s learning experiences to carry out long-term projects and create end products that demonstrate their learning. For teachers who are unfamiliar with this approach, Ford PAS recommends professional development related to project-based and inquiry-based learning. Beginning summer 2006, Ford PAS will offer professional development institutes focused on these and other aspects of the Ford PAS approach.
