When you want to ensure students are engaged in learning, see the relevance of lessons, and develop college and career readiness, project-based learning (PBL) is an essential approach every teacher should know. But simply “doing projects” is not enough. Instead, you need this book's rigorous approach to PBL. Using a classroom-tested framework, the authors take you through the steps of planning, implementing, and assessing projects that ensure you
- Increase student motivation and interest.
- Include student voice and choice in the learning process.
- Prepare students for high-stakes tests and lifelong learning.
Real-world examples from all grade levels and content areas give you ready-made ideas to consider immediately. Plus, there's advice on how school leaders can use PBL in informal settings and systemwide.
