Abstract

Case-based actions and engagements are the recommendations for Project-Based Group Learning (PBGL) that explore the experiences and consequences in classroom settings and beyond. Thus, the study addresses the effectiveness of PBGL by considering the challenges and achievements experienced at a private school in Kathmandu Valley. It is a case study of the first author's son in which the first author is a mentee of the second author, and the first author serves as his son's mentor. Thus, the study intends to provide a unique, subjective view of the dynamics of PBGL through an ethically grounded analysis. Finally, this case study adds to the expanding body of information about creative educational approaches, offering valuable insights for educators, institutions, and researchers looking to improve PBGL experiences.
