Description
Projects are a great way for GT students to take responsibility for learning and dive into subjects that interest them. But planning meaningful projects takes intentionality. Kristina Janeway, GT English educator, says that there is a difference between giving students projects and developing a project-based learning program. Project-based learning focuses on giving choices to students and team collaboration.
In this course, “What’s Your Problem? Project Based Learning in Middle School GT ELAR,” educators will learn how to set up and run project-based literature circles. Educators will discover creative ways to get students excited about literature and learn tips and tricks to make literature circles run smoothly. After taking this course, educators will have the resources they need to ignite a curiosity in students and help them become bold learners.
In this 1-hour course educators will:
- Comprehend the difference between projects and project-based learning
- Understand and apply the literature base for PBL applications
- Learn how to design literature circles
