Welcome to the PBL Playbook, brought to you by Magnify Learning – where we put teachers back in their sweet spot. Make sure you follow us on Twitter: @magnifylearning, @askgiebs, @MissB103, #PBLPlaybook.
Josh and Andrea continue the PBL Project Blitz series where once a month, they highlight a PBL project by veterans in the PBL classroom.
In this episode of the PBL Project Blitz series, our hosts are joined by Joe Steele (@cloudhid), an English teacher at CSA New Tech High School (@CSANewTechHS) in Columbus, IN. Joe discusses a project he did in his integrated English 10 and Probability & Statistics course that had students create Little Free Libraries in their community. Students were asked to analyze literacy data in their community to determine the best location for their libraries. They then worked to construct the libraries themselves, decide the books that would be included, and defend their work to community members to have their Little Free Library adopted by the community. This is an extra special Blitz episode not only for our guest, but also for our hosts. Tune in to hear more!
Stay tuned for more awesome projects as the PBL Project Blitz series continues every month!
