“It’s about trying to figure out ‘Okay, what are those steps, and how can I make it more accessible to them?’ I can’t emphasize enough meeting the student where they’re at.”
SHOW NOTES
Josh and Andrea continue the PBL Project Blitz series where once a month, they highlight a PBL project by veterans in the PBL classroom.
In this episode of the PBL Project Blitz series, Josh and Andrea chat with Irvington Community Schools teacher Emma Cudahy (@MissCudahy) about a podcast project she completed with her high school Government classes. This episode was a little different in that this project is not one that Emma feels is an example of the Gold Standard of PBL; this project highlight is an example of learning from failure when a project does not go as planned. Throughout the episode, Emma highlights meeting the students where they are, and offers some great advice regarding scaffolding and making a PBL fit for your students. This podcast often talks about being okay failing and using those as learning experiences, so our hosts were so grateful to get to chat with a classroom facilitator about how she did just that.
