NEW BOOK! Life's a Project: The 6 A's of Project Based Learning {Author Interview} | E181

Life's a Project the 6 A's of Project Based Learning Book

Life's a Project is the latest PBL book written by seasoned PBL educator Andrew Larson from a Magnify Learning National PBL Model School. Imagine an educational philosophy that not only emphasizes academic rigor but also  weaves in vital employability skills – that's the essence of the PBL that Andrew brings to life in our latest episode. His new book, "Life's a Project: The 6 A's of Project Based Learning" serves as a guide, sharing his personal transition from traditional teaching methods to a decade-long PBL adventure. The conversation promises to dismantle myths surrounding the perceived chaos of PBL, instead highlighting how it supports a structured, innovative classroom environment.

Venture with us through the 6 A's framework, a vital part of PBL that marries soft skills with academic rigor. We also discuss a newly introduced seventh A – aspiration – pondering its role in PBL. The discussion reinforces the notion that chasing perfection in education may well be a fool's errand, advocating instead for a more accommodating, practical approach to teaching that embraces the iterative nature of learning.

Finally, we tackle the often-overlooked but crucial aspect of PBL – assessment. By unraveling the creation of versatile rubrics, we demonstrate how standardized tools can enhance the learning experience. We shed light on the role of educators as facilitators, providing the structure necessary to scaffold student learning. If you're an educator seeking to enrich your teaching practice with authentic learning experiences, this episode will not only offer valuable insights but may very well shorten your learning curve into the world of PBL.

Changing Education Through Strong Leadership | E175


From my own shift from the world of engineering to the vibrant classrooms of teaching, I've experienced firsthand the electrifying impact of project-based learning (PBL) on both engagement and academic success. In our latest episode, I peel back the layers of this educational revolution, revealing how PBL not only boosted student performance but also increased attendance and diminished disciplinary issues. I open up about the inception of a PBL-centered school within a school, offering a blueprint for empowering leadership in education that could rewrite the narrative for students and teachers alike.

The conversation takes an inspiring turn as we introduce Maureen, a relentless advocate for inclusivity and personalized learning who is deeply committed to lifting up marginalized communities. With her at the helm of a micro school, we go deep with the concept of these small, relationship-focused educational settings that strike a delicate balance between traditional practices and the innovative changes crucial for addressing each student's individual journey. Maureen's story is a testament to the power of aligning teaching with passion and creating an educational culture that leaves a lasting impact.

We then cast a spotlight on the groundbreaking Microschool Grant Program with Getting Smart, exploring how it's fueling small schools in underprivileged areas to blossom and innovate. The episode wraps up with a discussion on the symbiotic relationship between education and business partnerships, and the ripple effect of students who return to their alma maters as educators, keeping the legacy of a nurturing the system alive. Join us as we explore these transformative tales and consider the future of education where every student's potential is not just recognized but fervently pursued.
