2.3.5.5 The Role of Student in Project-work:
There are a number of ways that research on student characteristics in Project-Based Learning can be conducted. Researchers can be interested in the differential appropriateness or effectiveness of PBL for different kinds of students. Alternatively, researchers can attempt to alter PBL designs or features in order to adapt to (accommodate, remediate) student characteristic variables. There are a number of student characteristic variables that might be investigated in the context of Project-Based Learning. For example, although no research was found to support this hypothesis, several PBL practitioners have stated that PBI, because of its various features, is a more effective means of adapting to students' various learning styles or "multiple intelligences" (Gardner, 1988: 110) than is the traditional instructional model (e.g., Diehl et al., 1999). other student characteristic variables that could be investigated include age, sex, demographic characteristics, ability, and a host of dispositional and motivational variables.
