When transitioning to a Project Based Learning Model, there are some key things to keep in mind when beginning. This article gives great insight on getting started and understanding the process of PBL.

Often times we think Project Based Learning is something new and up and coming. When really PBL is a learning model that has evolved for many years. Back in the prehistoric times, their entire livelihood was essentially project based. They were handed many problems and they had to adapt and adjust their lives to survive.

This site links to several resources for Project Based classrooms. There are several links within this site that are beneficial for project ideas or flipping your classroom in general.

Flipping the classroom to a Project Based Model is a process that takes time. It takes time to learn and adapt for both educators and learners. Switching to a PBL model allows the learners to engage and process things through real life skills and scenarios. The educators are able to process with students and help them through problem solving skills.

How many of you students are really into video games? Project Based Learning is a great learning model for video games. For students it would be just like playing video games, but they wouldn't realize they are really learning! If this is the case... I don't think video games are ALL that bad!

Tony Vincent talks through Project Based Learning as a whole. He starts with the questioning process which allows for the projects to develop. Then it goes into investigating, which allows for the questions and problems to be discovered. Finally he talks through final products to share learning.

This learning template walks through the steps and parts of PBL. Learners will actively engage in each step as they work through each project. Some aspects will go more in depth, while others will just skim through each step.

Another article that provides explicitly the essentials for Project Based Learning. The Buck Institute focuses on PBL to produce 21st Century Skills. Incorporating technology is fundamental in PBL. What worries me, as a future educator, is the unknown. I want to fully prepare my students with the skills they need, but we are preparing them for an unknown future. For example, in elementary school my computer class focused on "words typed per minute." But now students need to know much more than that when it comes to technology. How can we prepare globally competent students when we don't know what the global sphere will look like in 2020 and beyond?
This picture truly says 1000 words, which is why I like it. While reading an article, this one or another, is necessary to understanding what PBL is, this graphic is an excellent at-a-glance reminder. I'd actually like to take this image, transform it into a trumpet flower, then slide the graphic into the front of my planning binder to act as a beautiful reminder of what I should imbed into my lessons.
This article by BIE shows the basics to project based learning. The article shows the major important factors that make project based learning possible and how to do them. Like we covered in class, PBL's need to be significant and relate-able so they are interesting as well as have a driving question that works as the thesis statement for the project.
