Project based learning (PBL) is gaining renewed attention with the
current focus on college and career readiness and the
performance-based emphases of Common Core State Standards, but only
high-quality versions can deliver the beneficial outcomes that
schools want for their students. It's not enough to just ""do
projects."" Today's projects need to be rigorous, engaging, and
in-depth, and they need to have student voice and choice built in.
Such projects require careful planning and pedagogical skill. The
authors-leaders at the respected Buck Institute for Education-take
readers through the step-by-step process of how to create,
implement, and assess PBL using a classroom-tested framework. Also
included are chapters for school leaders on implementing PBL
systemwide and the use of PBL in informal settings. Examples from
all grade levels and content areas provide evidence of the powerful
effects that PBL can have, including: Increased student motivation
and preparation for college, careers, and citizenship. Better
results on high-stakes tests. A more satisfying teaching
experience. New ways for educators to communicate with parents,
communities, and the wider world. By successfully implementing PBL,
teachers can not only help students meet standards but also greatly
improve their instruction and make school a more meaningful place
for learning. Both practical and inspirational, this book is an
essential guide to creating classrooms and schools where
students-and teachers-excel.
