The Buck Institute for Education commissioned the cutting-edge advertising agency, Common Craft, to create a short animated video that explains in clear language the essential elements of Project Based Learning (PBL).
This simple video makes the essential elements of PBL come alive and brings to light the 21st Century skills and competencies (collaboration, communication, critical thinking) that will enable K-12 students to be college and work-ready as well as effective members of their communities
Chris Dede, Professor in Learning Technologies at Harvards Graduate School of Education, and Michael Geisen, 2008 National Teacher of the Year, discuss Examples of project-based learning in the classroom.
