An entry event can be used to introduce a new project to students. It is a key step in project-based learning and serves to:
-
hook the students in and get them engaged in the content
-
provide an exemplar of what the teachers expect
-
introduce key vocabulary (such as people, events and terminology) related to the targeted content to get the students thinking about what they'll need to know.
