Voice and Choice | E135

This is the final episode in our four part leadership series on How Do You Get People to Ooch Into PBL? If you’re a leader who wants to move into Project Based Learning  but you are not sure where to start, then this is the series for you. Today, Ryan is talking about giving your learners Voice and Choice. You can implement Voice and Choice to help your school ooch towards Project Based Learning. When you give your Learners some Voice and Choice, they are instantly more engaged and focused.

In this episode of the PBL Simplified podcast, our Need to Know is: How do I stop working so much on the weekend? It’s an important question and Ryan answers with what He uses when coaching other leaders on this. For our Leadership Leap, Ryan talks about the book Parenting Champions by Lanny Bassham.
