These six life skills are thinking, social, health, environmental, consumer awareness and self-management skills, which comprise several sub-skills.

The research findings indicate a signifi¬cant difference between the experimental and control groups life skills post-test findings in favor of the former.

Moreover, the findings showed the learning effect of project-based learning in the developing of life skills mentioned above, either separately or as a whole.

The Study recommended the use of project-based learning in biology curriculums, as well as emphasizing the improvement of life skills for secondary school female Students.
