Project-Based Learning (PBL) with a Purpose

Overview

In this session, we'll explore strategies for keeping student inquiry alive throughout the duration of a project-based learning experience. We know that inquiry is at the heart of PBL, but it can be challenging to sustain it over time.

First, we'll discuss how to create a culture of inquiry in your classroom. We'll cover how to foster curiosity and encourage students to ask questions. We'll also talk about how to create an environment where it's safe to take risks and make mistakes.

Next, we'll dive into specific strategies for sustaining inquiry during a project. We'll explore how to structure the process of student voice and agency while aligning to the standards, how to facilitate student-led discussions, and how to use feedback to keep inquiry moving forward with both educators and expert voices

By the end of this session, you'll have a toolkit of strategies to sustain inquiry throughout your project-based learning experience. You'll be equipped to create a culture of inquiry in your classroom and to keep student curiosity alive and well. So, join us for this exciting and informative session.
