I  teach in an inquiry, project-based, technology embedded classroom. A mouthful, I know. So what does that mean?

Challenge Based Learning provides: * A flexible framework with multiple entry points * A scalable model with no proprietary systems or subscriptions * A focus on global challenges with local solutions * An authentic connection between academic disciplines and real world experience * A framework and workflow to develop 21st century skills * The purposeful use of technology for researching, analyzing, organizing,  collaborating, communicating, publishing and reflecting. * The opportunity for learners to do something important now, rather than waiting  until they are finished with their schooling * The documentation and assessment of the learning experience from challenge to  solution * An environment for deep reflection on teaching and learning * A process that places students in charge of their learning
