Description

A portfolio developed by Suleiman et al. containing 14 FORAP-structured computing project packages with instructor, student, and assessment support for adoption in undergraduate computing courses.

Components

Claims

• Instructors reported that FORAP packaging reduced the initial effort to adopt and adapt PjBL activities, based on anecdotal feedback [+W]
• FORAP-packaged projects were deployed in 44 classroom trials across seven universities over four academic years, reaching about 2,000 students [+W]
• Students responded most positively to projects that felt authentic and were organized in a clear sequence with manageable milestones [+W]
• Scaffolding must be balanced: too little led to confusion and overload, while too much reduced opportunities for critical thinking [~W]
