PBL Suzie Boss Mon ISTE13 - Google Drive - 1 views

    Here's my notes from the PBL session from ISTE13.
  •  
    Thanks for sharing! There are some great ideas. I did the Marshmallow Challenge at the beginning of the year. It was a blast. I had a student come in the next day and tell me he had talked about it with his older sister, and the next time, he would have a better plan a build the tallest tower. What? Something happened at school and you went home and talked about it?!

Experts & NewBIEs | Bloggers on Project Based Learning: Get Your Community on Board wit... - 0 views

  • Lay the groundwork. Inform community members about the benefits of PBL. Use your district website or Facebook page to explain how projects prepare students for college and careers. Look for opportunities to have students talk about their projects with the media.
  • Recruit content-area experts. Inquiry is at the heart of PBL, and that means students are constantly asking questions. They often need to consult with content-area experts as part of their investigations. Recruit community members to share their expertise, and think broadly about the different experts you may want to enlist.
  • Recruit community clients. Give community members a close-up look at PBL by recruiting them as project clients.

  • Offer students as problem-solvers. Encourage community members to share problems or issues that would benefit from student problem solving
  • Open your doors. Invite community members to take part in PBL events, such as end-of-project celebrations and exhibitions of learning. Solicit their feedback as audience members. Chances are, they’ll come away with a new appreciate for how much students learn through PBL.
