Objective and Outcomes: *

Cooperating teachers will learn how to implement PBL in their classrooms. The first event was the PBL 101, and during the workshop teachers learned how to develop a driving question aligned with ND State Standards. The teachers developed the PBL unit and prepared to launch their unit in the spring of 2021 semester.

The sustained support visits in January and February are 1/2 day workshops supporting the implementation of the PBL and moving the project along. Teachers will learn how to sustain inquiry, develop rubrics, and move a project online.

The final event is the Symposium in which teachers will share what projects have been created and their learning from the experience.
