Problem or Project-Based Learning can be an effective way to start students on their journey to a collaborative and creative way of learning. Students engage in a journey to solve a challenging problem or question. Through this student-driven and collaborative learning environment, the students investigate and build a response to a complex question or problem. This investigation generates student leadership skills, creativity, critical thinking, and ultimately a voice that is witnessed by an audience of their peers and community. Join us to learn the basics of project-based learning and design thinking as it relates to implementing innovative instructional techniques in your classroom.
