Large Project and Problem Based Learning experiences can feel overwhelming for teachers to plan and implement. In addition, when students are limited to only occasionally having the opportunity to engage in PBL based instruction, they have limited opportunities to develop the skills and disposition for this type of student-centered learning. This conference will focus on how to integrate PBL-based instruction into every-day instruction throughout the year, by using Mini PBL’s as tools to help evaluate and enhance students’ current learning experiences. The workshop will explore protocols which can support individual teachers, as well as teams and PLCs, in quickly designing PBL experiences that can be easily integrated into instruction and occur in a multi-day (vs multi-week) unit design. The workshop will focus on how the every-day PBL process can help educators scaffold instructional skills for students and build a context for larger PBL opportunities by making this student-centered learning a more consistent part of student experiences throughout the year.
