  3. Recap of 3 Workshops: PBL is Alive and Well

    July 31, 2011 by admin

    I found that similarities exist among the otherwise very different educational settings I visited this past summer.  Teachers provided evidence that PBL is an effective combination of their own successful teaching strategies.  I received universal positive feedback on the use of the 10 Question Protocol as a way to plan a project with practical details and appropriate rigor.

    I am confident there will be a lot of very good projects from these workshops that will energize teaching and learning this coming school year.  I found working with teachers for this third straight summer the most rewarding yet and hope to continue guiding great PBL design at these fine schools and others.

  7. PBL at Latin School of Chicago – June 20, 21 and 22

    June 20, 2011 by admin

    As a follow up to last years workshop, we will continue our work with PBL implementation.  We have a nice mix of teachers that return from last year’s workshop and new teachers.  I have received feedback from the HTH Committee and have read the responses to those questions submitted online.  I intend to run this workshop much as I would in my PBL classroom.  I will attempt to find the right mix of guided practice and facilitation.  There will be plenty of time for teachers to work on developing projects!
