Abstract: 

This project discusses the role of project-based learning in helping students both develop useful skills outside the math classroom as well as learning math in a way that makes the subject applicable outside the classroom. It discusses the current state of project-based learning as well as the theories behind it. It then details how these theories are leveraged in the development of students into lifelong learners who can apply the skills and knowledge they learned in school to their lives outside school.
