I like the idea of project based learning. I think it will end up being a more lasting method of instruction.<p>I am interested in how they will still teach the breadth of the subject matter.<p>For example, you can get a lot of work done with linear algebra without really understanding vector spaces.<p>I assume this method of instruction would require more teacher-student interaction to be effective. The teacher could review the student progress on a project and make a note of where the application of a new technique would be helpful. Guiding the student towards a more complete understanding of a subject.
