PBL 101 Middle School

BIE National Faculty

Meeting Room 5/6

Based on the Buck Institute for Education's model for Gold Standard PBL, this three-day workshop engages middle school teachers in learning how to design, assess, and manage a rigorous, relevant, standards-focused project. The workshop models the project process. Facilitated by one of BIE's expert National Faculty, the workshop is a balanced blend of direct instruction, video analysis, hands-on work, resources sharing, and peer collaboration. Participants have substantial time to plan their own project, and receive formative feedback from peers and the facilitator. Participants receive a copy of the PBL 101 Workbook.
