چکیده (انگلیسی):

This paper encourages the investigation of real world problems by students and faculty and links
recommended student competencies with project based learning. In addition to the traditional
course objectives, project-based learning (PBL) uses real world problems for classroom
instruction and fieldwork to connect students, instructors, and industry mentors from several
disciplines with the recommended professional competencies required of students entering a
profession or career. The purpose and focus of this paper is to inform and enlighten, to instruct
and educate, and to evoke industry and community interest by combining educational service
value with an educational enterprising activity. The paper demonstrates how project-based
learning objectives in the classroom integrate with industry recommended professional
competencies in solving real world problems. Utilizing the extraordinary intellectual capital of
students and faculty in a learning environment on college campuses allows projects to be
arranged and managed in a manner that may also provide funding and grant opportunities.
Project-based learning linked to recommended professional competencies is a contributing
educational force that addresses the needs in communities, student life, and career choices.
