DO SOMETHING

Four easy steps to Project Based Learning.

EQUITY IN THE CLASSROOM

True equity in the classroom comes from authentic structures.

SEQUENCING

Without doing and revising
the whole point of PBL is moot. 

VOICE AND CHOICE

The teachers need to set some parameters so the students can create and discover with in.

WHAT PBL IS

This is a good introduction to what Project Based Learning is.

WHAT PBL IS NOT

This is my first animation, I was a little angry with some co-workes who were not getting the picture, so I drew it for them. 

AUTHENTIC EDUCATION

Examples of authentic classroom projects.

REFLECTION PROJECT

This is the way I self evaluate my projects. This is advanced PBL practice. However you will never really do authentic PBL without a Reflection Project.

TEXTBOOK ME NOT

WHY PBL

Not everyone learns the same way, teachers should develop projects that have more than one entry point.

PING-PONG COLLABORATION

One way to collaborate, the students bring the same work from one class to another.

NOTICE AND CONNECT

How I come up with project ideas.

If the teacher plans then they a more apt to let the students try their own path.

HOW TO SCHEDULE PBL

How to schedule integrated PBL, remember change the sec dual and you will change behaviors.

PEANUT BUTTER CUP COLLABORATION

This is another form of collaboration, in each lass the students work on different aspects of the same project and then bring them to gather, two great pice of work made into one
