- Abstract
In the educational practice, the project-based learning is well-known and used as a teaching-learning method, and also as a complementary evaluation method, both in the pre-university and higher education. This complex method was first used by J. Dewey and W. Kilpatrick, in the United Stated, and it implied replacing the classical study subjects with the performance of practical activities, having a real purpose (learning-by-doing), starting from the Pupils' spontaneous interests. It was believed that by doing so, by solving real issues, knowledge could be acquired, and abilities could be built. The project-based learning can take a variety of shapes, depending on the subject specificity the project is prepared for, the approached topic complexity (imposed or chosen, preferred), the age of the Project-Creators, their creative skills, the workmanship of the Teaching Staff, who must stimulate the Project Initiators' efforts, to encourage them during the activity performance, regardless of whether it is performed at individual or micro-group level. This article presents both some theoretical aspects related to the project-based learning method and its features, and some aspects regarding how it was applied in the artistic higher education, within the National Music University in Bucharest.
