In the context of '''world language education''', project-based learning provides meaningful opportunities for students to use the target language in authentic, real-world scenarios. Projects might include interviewing native speakers, creating bilingual podcasts, conducting cultural research, or planning hypothetical travel experiences entirely in the target language. These activities support the development of '''linguistic proficiency''', '''intercultural awareness''', and '''21st-century skills''' such as collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. Programs such as those at [https://www.languagebird.com LanguageBird], an accredited online language school, incorporate project-based learning into one-to-one instruction, allowing students to demonstrate mastery through personalized, culturally relevant projects rather than traditional tests.
