At the heart of the eSkwela project is the Instructional Model that supports a blended type of project-based learning, which aims to build a learning environment where learners engage in activities that encourage them to acquire and apply life skills. Through module packages composed of interactive module guides and e-learning modules, facilitators promote self-paced learning with the appropriate use of various ICT resources and tools for learning, communication, collaboration, and assessment.
