“When we start really listening to that student voice and give opportunities to share what their challenges are in the project and the multiple perspectives they bring to the project, because when those projects are more humanized or more authentic, it’s easier to pull in those pieces where they fit naturally. It doesn’t feel like an add-on, it feels like a necessity to have the project come together. ”
SHOW NOTES
In this episode, Josh and Andrea continue their series about the 6 A’s of PBL Project Design, where each episode will focus on one of the A’s and its importance to the PBL framework. This episode, they get a chance to talk to Laura Burbrink, who is a UDL Coach in Columbus, IN, has taught PBL at the elementary level, and has had four children of her own go through the PBL Pathway in Columbus. Laura discusses the fifth A of this series: Applied Learning. She identifies what Applied Learning looks like in a PBL, and how to integrate this idea in such a way that seamlessly fits with the project and content. She mentioned several of the other A’s of PBL Project Design, hitting home that none of these components work in isolation.
Enjoy the fifth installment of the 6 A’s deep dive series, and stay tuned for more great content coming from the PBL Playbook every month!
