PBl does not = no teaching. Never has, never will. Students negotiate when they need your expertise. They 'book teaching in'. #OZPBLCHAT
#OZPBLCHAT A1: You don't need to attend a workshop to be taught #PBL, it's natural learning unplugged. At least I think I know that.- RT @BiancaH80: For me, great projects tick all of these boxes: 8 essential elements of PBL bie.org/tools/freebies… #OZPBLCHAT
- OK ... on to Question 3: Why would/should you give PBL a go? <--- SUPER IMPORTANT QUESTION!!! #OZPBLCHAT
A3: First and foremost, students being actively engaged in their learning! #ozpblchat
@BiancaH80 @danpugliese agreed they are essential - but what advice to the teacher who struggles to embed all in a project? #OZPBLCHAT- @matonfender @danpugliese spend more time thinking/tinkering with the project ... get students to evaluate it using rubric #OZPBLCHAT
A3 I feel that my teaching is a bit dull ATM, and that if I'm not interested, my kids can't be. Need a way to make learning real. #OZPBLCHAT
A3: Because Traditional Teaching is so Boring I hate it more than my students #WhyTryPBL #ozpblchat- @ReduxOckham @biancah80 @jonesytheteachr #OZPBLCHAT when I managed to get all elements into a unit, draft critique elevated final product
RT @BiancaH80: For EVERY single project I do, I use a project calendar. It is an ESSENTIAL for PBL imho. #OZPBLCHAT- @wanstad73 I think spending time with the 'core' teachers who designed the project and negotiate your 'in' or ask the kids! #ozpblchat
- A3 I'm bored by some of my teaching, so my kids can't be taking something useful away. Want to give Eng. real world significance. #OZPBLCHAT
@BiancaH80 #OZPBLCHAT A3: The deepest learning is when real world problems are being solved - developing genuine citizenship- A3: I started thinking about implementing PBL with my year 10s to increase their motivation to learn #ozpblchat
A3: PBL great preparation for Yr 12 English courses & modules - thinking conceptually & linking texts etc together #OZPBLCHAT
@jennyluca Direct instruction should happen as the need arises, before or during the PBL. True personalised learning #ozpblchat- This is a video that I made that explains (using research) why I think PBL is important and essential: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Elp23tUkIuM&feature=plcp #OZPBLCHAT
@Madiganda thanks for that answer -helps me understand how what I do relates #OZPBLCHAT
@1rebelnohorse : I don't want them just to rely on me to give then answers and do the work etc.. I want them to leave and think! #OZPBLCHAT- @cristalbeam Year 10 is the PERFECT year for PBL ... engagement x1000 for kids who see that year as useless. #OZPBLCHAT
Less is more? Less teachers on classes in HS, less movement 4 bells, less emphasis on testing. More time for authentic learning? #ozpblchat- RT @tickytecky: @BiancaH80 Need more than 140 characters lol #reallife #studentcentred #integratedlearning #OZPBLCHAT
A3: PBL embraces the kinds of skills our kids will need in real life jobs. They're the kinds of skills I use in my job! #ozpblchat
