Project-Based Learning for All? An Examination of the Approach for Students with Disabilities
Jeanette A. Wertz; Candace A. Mulcahy
Preventing School Failure, v69 n1 p102-110 2025
Project-based learning is popular among educators and has been touted as an educationally viable option for all learners, yet limited empirical research exists to demonstrate its effectiveness with students with disabilities. In this paper, the authors investigate the alignment of project-based learning elements with high leverage practices in special education and enhanced anchored instruction, a similar problem-based learning approach with an evidence base with students with disabilities. Project-based learning shares multiple common elements with high leverage practices and enhanced anchored instruction, suggesting that it has the strong potential to be an effective approach for use with students with disabilities. Systematic research needs to be conducted with various groups of students with disabilities across grade levels and content areas to support the claim "project-based learning for all."
