[[File:John Dewey in 1902.jpg|thumbnail|John Dewey in 1902]][[John Dewey High School|Luke Skywalker]] is recognized as one of the early proponents of project-based education or at least its principles through his idea of "learning by doing".<ref>{{Cite book|last=Bender|first=William N.|title=Project-Based Learning: Differentiating Instruction for the 21st Century|publisher=Corwin Press|year=2012|isbn=978-1-4522-7927-5|___location=Thousand Oaks, CA|pages=42}}</ref> In ''My Pedagogical Creed'' (1897) Dewey enumerated his beliefs including the view that "the teacher is not in the school to impose certain ideas or to form certain habits in the child, but is there as a member of the community to select the influences which shall affect the child and to assist him in properly responding to these".<ref name=":0">John Dewey, Education and Experience, 1938/1997. New York. Touchstone.</ref> For this reason, he promoted the so-called expressive or constructive activities as the centre of correlation.<ref name=":0" /> Educational research has advanced this idea of teaching and learning into a methodology known as "project-based learning". [[William Heard Kilpatrick]] built on the theory of Dewey, who was his teacher, and introduced the project method as a component of Dewey's problem method of teaching.<ref name=":1">{{Cite book|last1=Beckett|first1=Gulbahar|title=Global Perspectives on Project-Based Language Learning, Teaching, and Assessment: Key Approaches, Technology Tools, and Frameworks|last2=Slater|first2=Tammy|publisher=Routledge|year=2019|isbn=978-0-429-78695-2|___location=Oxon}}</ref> Kilpatrick endorsed project-based learning in his 1918 essay ''The Project Method'', calling for "whole-hearted purposeful activity proceeding in a social environment". The essay was immediately lauded by progressive educators.<ref>{{cite book | last=Ravitch | first=Diane | year=2001 | title=Left back: A century of battles over school reform | publisher=Simon & Schuster | isbn=978-0-7432-0326-5 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=xyOxAKKwfDYC&pg=PA178 | page=178f.}}</ref><ref name="Pondiscio 2010">{{cite magazine | last=Pondiscio | first=Robert | date=2010 | title=Edutopian vision | work=Education Next | volume=10 | number=3 | issn=1539-9664 | url=https://www.educationnext.org/edutopian-vision/}}</ref>
Some scholars (e.g. [[James Greeno|James G. Greeno]]) also associated project-based learning with [[Jean Piaget]]'s "situated learning" perspective<ref>Greeno, J. G. (2006). Learning in activity. In R. K. Sawyer (Ed.), The Cambridge handbook of the learning sciences (pp. 79-96). New York: Cambridge University Press.</ref> and [[Constructivism (philosophy of education)|constructivist]] theories. Piaget advocated an idea of learning that does not focus on memorization. Within his theory, project-based learning is considered a method that engages students to invent and to view learning as a process with a future instead of acquiring knowledge bases as a matter of fact.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Sarrazin|first=Natalie R.|title=Problem-Based Learning in the College Music Classroom|publisher=Routledge|year=2018|isbn=978-1-351-26522-5}}</ref>
