MARKET
K-8 Education
Service Meets Social Graduate Design Studio II Spring 2010 Barbora Batokova Lauren Chapman Jeanette Leagh Marcus Perez Cervantes School of Design Carnegie Mellon University
DIRECTION
Traditional instructional methods in K-8 education are not preparing children to solve today’s and tomorrow’s complex problems.
Service Meets Social Graduate Design Studio II Spring 2010 Barbora Batokova Lauren Chapman Jeanette Leagh Marcus Perez Cervantes School of Design Carnegie Mellon University
DIRECTION
Because classroom learning is focused on short term retention as measured by standardized tests, students are not taught to collaborate and apply knowledge and skills to complex problems.
Service Meets Social Graduate Design Studio II Spring 2010 Barbora Batokova Lauren Chapman Jeanette Leagh Marcus Perez Cervantes School of Design Carnegie Mellon University
DIRECTION
As an instructional method, PBL addresses these needs and leads to sustained long-term transferable knowledge and skill development needed to solve complex problems.
