@plugusin One of the reasons I enjoy PBL is because of it’s relevance to human issues and interests. It’s adaptable in that way. You can easily pick out a news topic that students are passionate about, and turn it into a PBL. Here are some ideas for topics sure to get blood boiling:

Of course, it’s so important to build a foundation in the content and skills students need to ensure a #PBL unit is going to be successful. I had a lot of fun blending a high-effect size instructional strategy like The #JigsawMethod into a #PBL - https://blog.tcea.org/napkin-pd-pbl-your-jigsaw/

You can also PBL Your STEM Projects - https://blog.tcea.org/pbl-your-stem-projects/

Lots of possibilities and ideas available online that are even better than the ones I’ve expressed above. @edutooters #Education #5EModel #PBL #STEM
