Description
Immerse yourself in a new PBL book coming out Spring 2024 with Andrew Larson, the thought leader and author behind the game-changing book "Life's a Project: The Six As of Project-Based Learning." In our latest episode, Ryan Steuer reveals excerpts of the upcoming PBL book. Picture a future where PBL isn't just an option—it's the norm, with schools nationwide adopting this empowering practice by 2051. Larson's "Life's a Project" is your compass in bringing your PBL practice to the next level. We explore how an invasive species project is more than a lesson—it's a transformation. Students step into the shoes of scientists, environmentalists, and biologists, solving real-world problems and mastering the art of inquiry. This episode promises to leave you not just informed but equipped to infuse PBL into every lesson with strategies that ensure engagement and academic mastery. Grasp the art of assessment in PBL through our deep dive into effective rubrics and the strategies that make them work. With Larson's insights, we shed light on creating assessments that measure what truly matters—individual academic mastery and growth over time. We discuss why the final group product should only be a sliver of a student's grade and how tailored rubrics can provide clarity and fairness. As we preview Larson's upcoming book, we beckon you to join us in reshaping education through PBL and share resources that complement our journey toward a more interactive and meaningful schooling experience.
