Project based Learning is an approach that teachers can use to readily engage students and apply learning to real-world problems. The process, which uses learning opportunities and the inquiry method, includes differentiated student support, collaborative group problem-solving, and professional skill development.
“The 12 Integral Components of Success” is a wonderful, 10 hour bundle for teachers and school leaders contemplating the adoption of this model while also being a great refresher for veteran teachers of the PBL model. Every teacher can and will learn valuable tools from this course structure.
This detailed course on the implementation of Project Based Learning (PBL) has three primary objectives that focus on what the learner will know, understand, and do:
- KNOW: The learner will examine the entire process of PBL – from project launch to the presentation of understanding.
- UNDERSTAND: The learner will reflect upon their learning and focus on application through scenarios and rubrics that ensure mastery of the content.
- DO: The learner will evaluate their current practice of these PBL principles and either (1) adjust based upon new skills and ideas from the course or (2) design and implement their first PBL project.
This course has been approved the the University of Mississippi Office of Professional Development and Lifelong Learning to receive 1.0 continuing education units (CEU). Upon successful completion of the course, you may complete their form, including the $20 fee, and submit to receive their CEU.
