What are we driving at? Developing inquiry questions through project & concept-based design moves.

DESCRIPTION:

Bring a unit or just some standards and a vague idea for a unit, and we will spend our time with two concept-based design moves to craft generalizations and a PBL-style driving question to help focus both your unit design and learners into deeper inquiry. It’s hands on, and applicable from K-12, including DP and IB.
