WHY PBL?
Project Based Learning ProvidesA multiple entry point strategy and varied and multiple possible solutions
A focus on universal challenges with local solutions
An authentic connection with multiple disciplines
An opportunity to develop 21st century skills
The purposeful use of Web 2.0 tools for organizing, collaborating, and publishing

Project Based Learning Provides
The opportunity for students to do something rather than just learn about something
The documentation of the learning experience from challenge to solution
24/7 access to up-to-date technology tools and resources so students can do their work

DISSECTING THE PBL PROCESS
Design Structure
http://ali.apple.com/cbl/
Big Idea
a broad concept that can be explored in multiple ways, is engaging, and has importance to high school students and the larger society
Examples –
Diversity
Sustainability
Essential Question
identify what is important to know about the big idea and refine and contextualize that idea
Examples –
What is cultural identity and how does it define you?
How does my water consumption impact my world?
Challenge
a challenge is articulated that asks students to create a specific answer or solution that can result in concrete, meaningful action
Example –
Create cross-cultural connections at your school
Improve your home, school, or community use of water.
Guiding Questions
generated by the students, these questions represent the knowledge students need to discover to successfully meet the challenge
Examples –
How do we use water? How much do we use? How is water wasted?How can water be conserved?
Guiding Activities
lessons, simulations, games, and other types of activities to help students answer the guiding questions and set the foundation for them to develop innovative, insightful, and realistic solutions
Example – Calculate Your Individual Water Footprint
Guiding Resources
focused set of resources can include podcasts, websites, videos, databases, experts, and so on that support the activities and assist students with developing a solution
Example - WaterSense Quiz from the Environmental Protection Agency’
www.epa.gov/watersense/water/text.htm
Solution(s)
each solution should be thoughtful, concrete, actionable, clearly articulated, and presented in a publishable multimedia format
Assessment
solution can be assessed for its connection to the challenge, accuracy of the content, clarity of communication, applicability for implementation, and efficacy of the idea
the process that the individuals as well as teams went through in getting to a solution can also be assessed, capturing the development of 21st century skills
Publishing
students are encouraged to publish their results online, soliciting feedback
Exemplar – Energy
Big Idea = Energy
Essential Question = What is the impact of my fossil fuel consumption?
Challenge = Reduce your family’s fossil fuel consumption.
http://ali.apple.com/cbl/challenges/sustainability/energy.html
Energy
Guiding Questions =
What is a fossil fuel?
Where does my family use fossil fuels?
What is made from fossil fuels?
How much gas does my family use in one week?
What are the alternatives to fossil fuels?
http://ali.apple.com/cbl/challenges/sustainability/energy.html
Energy
Guiding Activities =
Learn About Fossil Fuels
Students research and develop a clear definition of fossil fuels.
How Much Fossil Fuel Do You Own?
Students create a list of products that have fossil fuels in them. They do an inventory of all the items in their homes that contain fossil fuel and investigate alternatives to these items.

Energy
Guiding Resources =
Energy Story: Fossil Fuels—Coal, Oil and Natural GasThe California Energy Commission provides an overview of fossil fuels.www.energyquest.ca.gov/story/chapter08.html
Energy EfficiencyThe Energy Information Administration provides information for students about energy consumption and efficiency.www.eia.doe.gov/kids/energyfacts/saving/efficiency/savingenergy_secondary.html
