Digital Age PBL

4th grade is the year when students across the United States study their state's history. This provides an opportunity for students learn about people in their family in the past who took risks to shape their futures and who helped provide the students with the opportunities from which they currently benefit.

Another good example of PBL in action

I often times learn from examples. This is an example I found during a research project. It provides an example of a PBL unit and how it changed the student's attitude toward science.

My biggest fear when working with PBL is assessment. This is a great resource to help breakdown the process of assessment for Problem Based Learning.

Offers tools and strategies for PBL technology integration

Great article about how PBL can be implemented into a kindergarten classroom. Younger students can benefit from PBL too.

Ways to ensure that PBL is effective

A great starting read into PBL that aligns nicely with BIE (authors are from the BIE). The example outlined is relatable!

Great article! Helps teachers focus on what project-based learning really means.

This article changed my thinking...and therefore my classroom...to make me a PBL believer. I reread it often!

Google for Education: Training Center

Perfect timing for this week. I also joined the QFT site that is linked in this article. It has some great videos for helping teachers implement good questioning in her/his classroom.
