POGIL | Home - 2 views

  • POGIL uses guided inquiry – a learning cycle of exploration, concept invention and application – as the basis for many of the carefully designed materials that students use to guide them to construct new knowledge.   POGIL is a student-centered strategy; students work in small groups with individual roles to ensure that all students are fully engaged in the learning process. POGIL activities focus on core concepts and encourage a deep understanding of the course material while developing higher-order thinking skills. POGIL develops process skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, and communication through cooperation and reflection, helping students become lifelong learners and preparing them to be more competitive in a global market.

    Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning

    I love POGIL and have helped spread the love in my department. My students have really responded positively to having assigned roles which I rotate and randomly assign. The key is really reinforcing those roles every time because it gives control and voice to some kids who would never take it on their own.

    Students work together on research and concept development. Each group submits a minimum of 10 detailed thumbnails for the print advertisement to the teacher, who helps choose a concept for the entire campaign. Each group generates original content (headline and narrative) and imagery (photographs, illustrations).

Teach21 Project Based Learning - "Worth Your Salt" - 1 views

  •  
    The project revolves around the energy produced in various types of chemical reactions (a key concept in all chemistry classes) and asks students to propose a useful source of chemical energy after engaging in a series of hands-on experiments and online activities. I appreciate how this project not only requires students to think deeply about their experimental results, but also how it asks them to apply them in a new context. Students not only collect and analyze data, they must seek a useful purpose or application of their results, giving the project real-world relevance.

    I liked this graphic because it is easy to interpret and could easily be used with a group of teachers.

    Possibly a very good way to introduce the concept of project based learning.  Young children love to create/play with just a "box".

Inquiry-based Learning: Explanation - 0 views

  •  
    In researching the differences between problem and project based learning I found this article about inquiry based learning that was somewhere in between. I believe that inquiry based learning is a stepping stool to project based learning and this was an easy read with good definitions.

STEM curriculum for K-12 - TeachEngineering - 0 views

    A collection of curricular units that tie science concepts to engineering design challenges

    PBL works has a very nice site, but they are much more interested in middle and elementary school, than high school. I like Teach Engineering. I look a PBL class this school year from a company that creates PBL units and even they are really light on chemistry and physics for upper grades.

The Impact of Project-Based Learning on Minority School Achievement: Implications for S... - 0 views

  •  
    This study compared 7th and 8th graders' achievement between groups of students who engaged in project-based learning with those who did not. This study is based on Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory, a method of experiential learning that starts with observation and reflections that leads to abstract concepts that lead to new ideas and thinking (Cervantes et al., 2015). The learning cycle, pictured below helps students learn and practice 21st-century learning skills needed for both college and career. The groups that engaged in project-based learning outperformed the groups that did not engage in PBL in both STAAR reading and math tests(Cervantes et al., 2015).
