Personalized
PBL + STEM Learning
Building autonomy
In project-based learning programs, self-directed students become
proactive learners.
Students who take initiative with their learning will enter college and the workforce with the ability to self-manage and build relevant skillsets. SmartLab supports students by providing them with rigorous experiential learning opportunities designed to help them become critical thinkers who can tackle complex problems.
By fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and self-directed learning skills, students become more adaptable and resilient in the face of challenges. This also encourages collaboration and communication, as students often work on projects in teams, sharing their unique perspectives and expertise. The hands-on, experiential learning opportunities in the SmartLab equip students with practical skills and real-world knowledge, ensuring they are well-prepared for the demands of higher education and the workforce.

to meet the unique needs, strengths and interests
of students
Personalized learning in the SmartLab offers a transformative educational experience by enabling learners to progress at their own pace, ensuring that they fully understand concepts before moving on. And by focusing on individual learning paths, students are more engaged and motivated, as they can pursue topics that genuinely interest them.
The SmartLab’s technology-rich environment further enhances this personalized approach by providing diverse resources and tools that cater to various learning styles, making education more accessible and effective for all students. Personalized learning in the SmartLab prepares students for future academic and career success.
