Setting Up a Project-Based Learning Workflow in ClickUp
Use the Project-Based Learning Coordinator Agent inside ClickUp to build an end-to-end workflow. The following steps outline a simple setup that you can adjust for your context.
Step 1: Define Your Learning Goals
Begin by describing the learning environment and target outcomes. In your ClickUp AI Agents chat, provide details such as:
- Grade level or learner profile

Ask the Agent to summarize or structure your learning goals. You can then convert those goals into tasks or docs inside ClickUp.
Step 2: Generate a Project Brief Using ClickUp AI Agents
Next, request a project brief that matches your goals. In the ClickUp Agent conversation, you can include context like timeline, constraints, and required deliverables. The Agent can propose:
- A driving question or challenge

- Key deliverables and checkpoints
Copy the generated brief into a ClickUp Doc and refine the language, ensuring that it aligns with your institutional guidelines.

The Project-Based Learning Coordinator Agent can propose task names, descriptions, and even dependencies that reflect a logical learning progression.
Step 4: Map Milestones and Timelines
Ask the ClickUp Agent to translate the project into a timeline with clear phases. Provide information such as start date, total duration, and school calendar constraints. The Agent can help you:
- Break the project into weekly milestones
