Project Work provides a firm grounding in critical literacy, encourages collaboration with others, and fosters learner independence. This is a first publication by Junior College Project Work researchers and practitioners in Singapore. The editors and contributors come from a wide range of disciplines and theoretical beliefs, and as such, have a synergy of knowledge that aptly encapsulates the nature of project-based learning. Taking a selective rather than a comprehensive focus to Project Work-as it would be a task we would have to engage in for a lifetime if we tried to capture all the facets of multi-disciplinary project-based learning-it describes the nature, processes, outcomes, research and resources in this subject.
