Epilogue - Completing the Book Writing Project

Classes are like a trip
'One trip per semester, like every vacation.'

We've already heard a lot about project-based learning.
However, there is not much experience in planning and implementing project classes on one's own.
There are many times when we feel lost and don't know how to plan or how to put it into practice.
There are many examples of brilliant project-based classes, but none provide detailed information about the process of designing and planning these classes, or how they were successfully implemented.
This book is for 'project beginners'.
In other words, this is a book written about the basics of project-based classes.
It contains everything from project planning to specific implementation.
Part 1 introduces the eight steps of project planning.
Part 2 introduces specific examples and operational methods for implementing project classes.
Part 3 provides guidance on how to record your project lessons so that you can use them effectively in the future.

If you read this book and plan one project class per semester, you will be able to accumulate two project classes in one year, six in three years, and ten in five years.
These accumulated project classes become my own teacher training curriculum, and existing project classes are connected and linked to each other, leading to new projects.
Just as a successful trip gives you the confidence to take on new trips, a successful project class gives you the confidence to take on new project classes.
Just as traveling a lot will help you develop your own travel style, taking a lot of project classes will help you develop your own teacher training curriculum.
With so many project classes piling up, even if you just do one a month, the year will be over.
It will be a year filled with happy worries and worries about the many things you have to do.
Just as you might prepare for a trip with excitement by reading a travel book, why not prepare for your project class with the same excitement as you would for a trip by reading this book? Are you ready to embark on a journey together? This book will serve as a guide for your project class journey.
