Explanation:

The project method is one of the modern ways of teaching. In this method the student’s point of view is taken into consideration and in the same manner the content of the studies is prepared. The method is prepared on the basis of the philosophy of Pragmatism and the principle of ‘Learning by doing’. According to Thomas, “it is a voluntary undertaking which involves constructive effort or thought and eventuates into objective results”. This method involves studying in a much more realistic manner, it takes the students beyond the walls of the classroom. It is usually carried out in a natural setting which makes the learning more like an experience.
