Approaches to Learning: Incorporating Critical Thinking and Differentiation into Project-based Learning Outcomes

(W Mar 10, 1-2:30pm Eastern Standard  Time)

Participants in this 1.5 hr. workshop, will compare project-based learning outcomes and use their analysis to backward map the lesson such that it hits the skills and thinking objectives desired. In this workshop teachers will work with several free online applications that allow students to create diverse projects to stimulate novel application of material learned in a remote classroom. Teachers will then consider an application for this learning tool within the scope of their own curriculum and modify the template instructions to develop an assignment that is ready to use with their students. The techniques taught in this workshop can be utilized in either a remote or in-person classroom.
