Project
world is an opportunity for students to learn not only from teachers but
from each other. Here are four people. Three of them are students and the
one in the middle is our teacher, Mr. Gaudet. This class on harness tying
was not just taught by Mr. Gaudet, but each of the students were to make
sure that the rest of the students understood how to do it. So we were
all teaching each other. |

Project
world is a chance for students to achieve new goals. This student had never
rock climbed a day in his life. But he believed that he could climb so
he overcame the forces of gravity and fear and made it to the top of the
cliff. He demonstrated the effort put forth in all activities in project
would, whether it be creating a hyperstudio presentation or climbing a
cliff. |

Project
world is the kind of class where students and teachers act more like friends.
This is because everybody is learning, there is no set curriculum for the
teacher to teach. Every student is responsible to teach the rest of the
class what they are learning. |

Part
of Project World involves studying the human effect on the wet land behind
our school. As this picture shows, it has not been a good one. Some students
have been studying certain time periods of the wet land and found that
it was used as a dumping ground form many years. |
|
In
Project World students are allowed to study things on a more practical
level. You are encouraged to wonder about certain topics, then discover
on your own how to do them. In this picture this student had in interest
in the art of photography and was allowed to study it in this class. |

There
is also the part f the class that is out to preserving the wetland. |
