Project 13 – Academic Anxiety Amongst Teens

Overview

In Project 13, students initially narrowed down their choice of topic to ‘academic anxiety’. Each student designed their own contributions with guidance and assistance from adults and peers to create a classroom maze, which was representative of navigating the teenage years.
Titled, “The Maze of Emotions”, it was constructed of PVC pipe and connectors and then filled with writing and art (later exhibited).
Related learning and passions were also showcased onstage and/or in the classroom. Read the full article for useful insights into the steps in the development of this project.
