“As teachers, we need to be able to step back and say ‘But how will students see this?’ To us, it’s our baby and we’ve designed this, so we think that it’s really clear…sometimes we need to remember that they don’t see all of it yet. It’s a constant work in progress. It’s never done, and that’s what makes it fun. […] We’re constantly trying to poke at things and make them better and find better ways.”
Welcome to the PBL Playbook, brought to you by Magnify Learning – where we put teachers back in their sweet spot. Make sure you follow us on Twitter: @magnifylearning, @askgiebs, @MissB103, #PBLPlaybook.
In this episode, Josh and Andrea launch a new series for their listeners. The PBL Project Blitz. Once a month, the Project Blitz will highlight a PBL project by veterans in the PBL classroom.
In this inaugural episode of the PBL Project Blitz, our hosts sit down with Andrew Larson (@andrewmlarson), a science teacher at CSA New Tech (@CSANewTechHS) in Columbus, IN. Larson shares about one of his favorite projects: the Dystopian Masterpiece theater, in which students studied dystopian literature and had the opportunity to write and perform their own plays at a local theater.
Stay tuned for more awesome projects as the PBL Project Blitz series continues every month!
