Welcome to the Out of the Gate Project Newsletter!
The purpose of this quarterly newsletter is to spread the word about the innovative work of Out of the Gate: Preparing Preservice Teachers to Use PBL Through PBL (Out of the Gate). On these pages we will share successes, reflections, and experiences of participants, lessons learned, and research results from the teacher education program (TEP)/district partnerships participating in this project. This newsletter is for Out of the Gate Project participants, members of the partnership communities, as well as the broader K-12 and higher education communities. Please join us in our effort to transform teacher education by sharing this newsletter with others.

HOW DOES OUT OF THE GATE WORK?: PBL 101
HOW DOES OUT OF THE GATE WORK?: PBL 101
Each year a cohort of preservice teachers, their cooperating teachers, and teacher education program faculty participate in a series of workshops to develop and hone their skills to design and implement high quality PBL.
In the last newsletter we framed the beginning and end of the progression of learning--the Project Slice and PBL Symposium. The heart of the experience is the PBL 101 workshop where participants learn and apply BIE's Gold Standard Design Elements to create the project they're going to use during their student teaching semester or, for faculty, in their classrooms.
To see highlights and lots more pictures from the PBL 101 workshops this fall at Grand Valley State and University of Mary, click here.
