Why PBL?

Because Project Based Learning works. It engages students in learning that is deep and long-lasting. PBL can be transformative for students – especially those furthest from educational opportunity.

Projects in Action

Student-Led Learning and Anticipating the Unforeseen in PBL

First-time projects don’t always go according to plan. In fact, one of the only things you can plan on are things not going according to plan. Miscalculation regarding timing, unforeseen complications, and unexpected teachable moments are just a few of the things that can cause a project to deviate from even the most carefully constructed plan.

Honoring Places and Context in PBL

One of the popular projects in the PBLWorks library is Welcome to the Neighborhood, where our youngest learners explore their neighborhoods, construct maps of their most treasured geographic locations, and create a guide for newcomers.
