Project Based Learning: Explained. Project Based Learning | BIE. Project Based learning. PBL + Edmodo = Awesome. Tagged with: Bianca HewesFeatured BloggerPBL Friday with Bianca! I find myself sitting in a lecture by philosopher David Chalmers (it’s titled ‘The Singularity: A Philosophical Analysis’) and realise that once again I am behind in writing my weekly post for edmodo – where do the hours go?! The layout of the room (a university lecture theatre) contradicts the focus of this post. It puts me in an uncomfortable and uncertain mood. I plan (as my title suggests) to blog about a student-centred, inquiry-based style of learning that seems anathema to the arrangement of this philosophy talk.
And it prompts me to question the legitimacy of my vision for education. If a student’s learning career culminates in a university education – an education still mired in content transfer, hierarchies and exam-driven assessments – then am I not doing my students a disservice by using Project Based Learning? PBL + edmodo = Awesome This formula has been proven in my class over the last 6 months.
Project-Based Learning Made Easy. "Project-based learning is great but it is too hard for teachers to do well. " I have heard this belief stated more times than I can count. Is PBL really so difficult that only a select number of masterful teachers, innovative schools, and dynamic school leaders can pull off high quality projects? I don't think so. In the service of inspiring educators to embrace a performance-based approach to teaching, learning and assessment by highlighting great projects, I am worried that we actually dissuade teachers and leaders from using this approach.
As learners we need to be presented with challenging yet attainable tasks in order to gain our full engagement. To dramatically increase the number of students and teachers engaging in project-based learning and performance assessment we need to highlight examples that are attainable. Academic Rigor -- Ask a Question In addition to mapping from state content standards, we use inquiry as driver for almost all projects, units and lessons.
Announcing Edutopia's Project-Based Learning Camp | Edutopia Group Discussions by and for Educators. Join us for a month-long, online project-based learning workshop, facilitated Suzie Boss, Edutopia blogger and co-author of Reinventing Project-Based Learning. Participants will work together to brainstorm on the design of a project that challenges students to respond to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. By the end of the four weeks, you will have developed a project plan, including time lines and assessments. More importantly, you will have explored a variety of resources and met a community of others who are interested in using PBL to develop students' problem-solving skills. Likely outcomes? We plan to organize camp conversations around the oil spill topic, but expect discussions will branch off in a variety of directions as participants focus on particular content areas or grade levels.
