Problem Based Learning Course 1: Fundamentals
REGISTER: June 14th, 9 am – 12 pm | June 21st, 9 am – 12 pm
Cost: $50.00 | CPDUs: 3 hours
In this introductory course, participants are briefly immersed in a Problem Based Learning activity. Participants also work to define the technique and outline the general framework of a PBL through the student and teacher perspectives. Lastly, participants begin to identify problems they can use to teach specific classroom content.
Problem Based Learning Course 2: Details in Design
REGISTER: June 15th, 9 am – 12 pm | July 7th, 9 am – 12 pm
Cost: $50.00 | CPDUs: 3 hours
In this course, we explore how to design our own Problem Based Learning (PBL) units for the K-12 classroom. Through exploring the structure of example PBL units, participants employ core design elements of the technique to develop a PBL unit unique to their classroom and students. Suggested Prerequisite: PBL 1: Fundamentals
Problem Based Learning Course 3: Applications in the Classroom
REGISTER: June 16th, 9 am – 12 pm | July 28th, 9 am – 12 pm
Cost: $50.00 | CPDUs: 3 hours
This course focuses on techniques to prepare the teacher and their students for the successful implementation of a Problem Based Learning unit. Topics such as inquiry-based learning, problem-solving, and building collaboration, as well as assessments, are explored.
Problem Based Learning Course 1: Fundamentals
REGISTER: JUNE | JULY | AUGUST
Format: 100% Asynchronous | Cost: $50.00 | CPDUs: 3 hours
This course is designed to be an autonomous learning experience. First, we introduce the learner to the fundamentals of the Problem Based Learning technique. Learners then work to define the technique, identify important characteristics and explore the student experience of the process. Lastly, learners identify problems they can use to teach specific classroom content. Instructor feedback is provided throughout the course.
Problem Based Learning Course 2: Details in Design
REGISTER: JUNE | JULY | AUGUST
Format: 100% Asynchronous | Cost: $50.00 | CPDUs: 3 hours.
This course is the second in the PBL course series and is designed to be an autonomous learning experience. In this course, learners explore design elements involved in creating a Problem Based Learning for the K-12 classroom. Through exploration of example units, learners learn to apply the design elements to create their own PBL unit unique to their classroom. Instructor feedback is provided throughout the course. Suggested Prerequisite: PBL 1: Fundamentals
