learning level of the project. The pre-test is related to the topic of the project, which is
Climate Change and will be covering different school subject, among others, Math,
Biology, Geography and English. This test will be in the form of multiple choices and essays

Century Project Based Learning Model (Cross Subject PBL)
Schools have to implement a pilot project for one month, and should be across activities
among students in other countries based on their PBL design agreed during online as well as
during the face to face workshop. SEAMOLEC Facilitators are going to assist and supervise
during the pilot project conducted. At the end the Teachers have to make a report by using
template provided and share this report to the forum.
5. Post-Test for Students
A post-test will be conducted to measure the learning as a result of the project
implementation and to see the appropriateness of the learning process. Similar to the pre-
test, the post test will be conducted online using Edmodo in the form of multiple choice and
essays. The coverage of the test will be based on some school subjects, i.e. Math, Biology,
Geography and English.
6. Post Implementation of 21
st
Century Project Based Learning Model (Cross Subject PBL)
At the end of the implementation of Project Based Learning, each participating school will
join the international Online Seminar Conducted by SEAMOLEC and will have to present and
share the result of the Project Based Learning Model implemented in their schools.
SEAMOLEC will evaluate the result of this implementation based on some criteria, among
others, the suitability of the PBL with the timeline, the teachers efforts in ensuring students
learning, the teachers effort in supporting collaboration among students (schools) and the
success of the project implementation. Awards will be rewarded to three best schools.
