Exploring The Seas: Engaging Early Learners With Project-Based Marine Thematic Learning

Abstract

This study delves into the effectiveness of project-based marine thematic learning for early childhood education. Employing a qualitative research methodology, it examines how integrating marine themes into project-based learning (PBL) frameworks can enhance educational outcomes for young learners. The research identifies the significance of engaging children in marine-themed projects, aiming to foster a deeper understanding of marine ecosystems, sustainability, and conservation from an early age. By analyzing participant responses and educational outcomes, the study highlights the potential benefits of this approach, including increased environmental awareness, improved critical thinking skills, and enhanced collaborative skills among early learners. The findings suggest that project-based marine thematic learning enriches the educational experience and plays a crucial role in nurturing informed, environmentally conscious future citizens.
