Abstract

Numerous researches have been conducted to develop effective teaching methods. Thus, aims and purposes of higher education can be achieved. Project-based learning is one of the student-centered approaches in teaching and learning process. As an instructional model, project-based learning has found to contribute several benefits to the learning process. At the same time, it also has challenges for teachers and students in the implementation of this model. The objectives of this study are to describe the implementation of project-based learning in ICT and multimedia for agribusiness course and its assessment in the course. The paper also discusses the challenges faced in implementing project-based learning. Project-based learning implemented in ICT and multimedia course consists of five main stages namely identification of the project topic, project planning (how to apply theory and concepts into the project), project investigation on the selected topic, preparing the product of the project, presentation of the product and evaluation of the process. There were seventeen participants of this course. The assessment includes a weekly report, self-assessment, and product performance. Despite some challenges such as creating nature of collaboration and creativity among the participants, project-based learning is an appropriate teaching method for ICT and multimedia course. Most of the participants agreed that they have learned and developed ideas, use available resources to accomplish their projects within the time restrictions.
