Description

The benefits of utilizing Project-Based Learning (PBL) in a classroom setting have been well-established in several research studies, including a study from researchers from Lucas Education Research in 2021 that found “compelling evidence that project-based learning is an effective strategy for all students, outperforming traditional curricula not only for high achieving students but across grade levels and racial and socioeconomic groups.” In other words: PBL, when done right, is a powerful teaching tool for deep learning.

This self-paced professional learning course will take teachers step-by-step through the process of building a project-based unit. Educators will explore why PBL is not only a unique and highly effective framework for teaching content and skills, but a must-have for teachers wanting to create meaningful learning experiences. In this workshop, we will explore components of the World Leadership School “Wheel of Pedagogy” with examples and the tools to design a unit specific to each classroom. Paired with live, virtual coaching, participants will design a unit plan, receive feedback, and plan for classroom implementation. By the end of this course, teachers will have a PBL unit ready to launch in their classrooms.
