I can honestly say that PBL was so successful in a subject I taught with middle school students I was able to change most of the curriculum to use this approach.Most students relished the challenge and self-control of their learning. Those that didn't..well it was a massive learning experience for me and helped them to develop a passion for learning and life, something the system had beaten out of them. I really wish I had seen this video years ago though..some great tips and put together as a vision for education. These days it is hard to change a curriculum to support PBL as there is too much content and standards to cover!
Just curious, how did you apply PBL to Maths when it came to learning certain formula eg volumes and area of geometric shapes?
@@stefanredford7941 learn to the problem not the solution, basically students are given a problem that kind of resembles math olympiad puzzles that correlate with the material, then they discuss their perspective on how to tackle this issue, after that they are taught the material, then given investigations (real life implications to the problem) which asses their understanding of unit, these formative assessments also contain questions like ‘justify ur answer’ or ‘how is this useful in real life’. Then continue to practice the material by grouping students based on ability, this is done by gamifying the learning experience. After that student driven learning begins for example if students are exploring geometrical shapes they are able to create a project of their choice using their knowledge on the material. Eg; design a room using an online software then message measure it and calculate the area or sm idk.( For algebra you could be given a map and find the relationships of angles through implementing formulas) Then give out a summative assessment and finally a reflection sheet to reflect on the unit.
I think that PBL is key to transforming traditional education and making projects valuable. There are many projects created in schools and many classes that teach to the test. The key to PBL and its five key components when combined together create the greatest potential for authentic learning.
I liked a lot this video, I am student from Spain, my degree is for being a primary teacher. This is my first year studying this, but I am so interesting in changing the way of spanish education, that is very traditional.
Thanks a lot for the information about how to work with PBL.
This is a very good learning concep and witk apractical approach very nice for teachers
Excellent!! I think this is very well done - interesting, compelling, comprehensible - thank you for making this. I LOVE this style of learning/teaching, and although it is VERY hard work when compared to the more traditional models, it's totally worth it in terms of outcome. And I'm happy to see that PBL is alive and well. (from J. Brown per H. MacKenzie)
This concept of PBL seems ideal to the students' thirst for knowledge and it's application on the real world. Realizing that state educational standards must be met, it is a great way to further offer education in a way that is a format for life-long learning. So many students learn more effectively by witnessing what they learned in a visual way, such as projects that bring it all to life. I wonder how you fit it all in, with varied levels of learning styles/abilities. Do you have enough time to accomplish your goals in a busy, sometimes distracting classroom? Kudos to you!
Thanks for sharing this video that simply explains how to implement PBL inside a classroom.
Thanks for sharing this video about PBL! Really helpful!
This is a very good concept and it is very practical approach. I believe this is the way fwd. and i believe that it will help reach maximum number of students in a class room. Hats Off.
This video is an excellent introduction to project based learning. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks for watching!
I really like the idea of project-based learning. As a beginning teacher, I think that I will give a few classes of direct instruction to give students background information before delving into their projects. Since I'm also a proponent of a flipped classroom, I see how easily I could ask students to watch video lectures at home, then come to school with ideas and knowledge for their group project.
That sounds like a great idea! PBL can definitely work well when combined with other classroom techniques. As you're getting started, you might find our Flipped-Learning Toolkit videos useful: czcams.com/play/PL10g2YT_ln2jORaF5dv5jwVZyQqUhcPeY.html
Thanks! I'm looking into your link right now
What an excellent video! Thank you!!
Excellent video on Project based learning
Greate and essential important points in PBL.
For teachers struggling with the concept of PBL because you feel PBL advocates for trashing all traditional strategies, perhaps this visual from the New Tech Network will help.

I can tell you from experience my shift to PBL was a powerful one for me and my students- from all backgrounds. It takes time, thought and is not in any way "easy", but it is absolutely worth it. #kidsdeserveit
This is what I am looking for...thanks for the video! it means a lot for my Paper.. :) is there any video that represents another project especially in Language? Thanks in Advance!
Very nice and usefule video
Great!
I am looking for the original video to the old footage in the beginning about how children will function in the world today. Can anyone help me out???
Hi Avery! The archival footage we used was from the Prelinger Archive. I don't have the exact film's name at hand, but PM me if you're still interested and I can look it up. archive.org/details/prelinger
Hello, which Model of Education fits better when teaching and learning with Podcasts? I would like them to improve their listening skills.
Vitto, you might find this article about training the brain to listen helpful: www.edutopia.org/blog/training-the-brain-to-listen-donna-wilson.
We also have this five-minute film festival for teaching with podcasts: www.edutopia.org/blog/film-festival-podcasting-classroom-resources. Check it out.
Wow thank you very much. This will definirively help a lot :)) !
Sounds good; however, in implementing PBL for several years I can tell you there are many problems. The top students will benefit tremendously. Social loafing is a major problem, major. Some students are diligent in their work and are left with the bulk of the work load, complaining, "it's not fair,"frustrated, up late trying to meet deadlines. For too many, their goal is to latch on to a team with one member or two with the go getter mindset and reap all the benefits. Is this where education is going? Even college?
You identified the problem, now, lets try to come up with solutions. I would say that teams should be composed of a few students 2-4, students with less skills developed should be the drivers in projects, an work with students with better performance, and the facilitator, you, for that matter, needs to reinforce this relationship and encourage students to do and complete their projects in the classroom. I would offer you these suggestions :)
Isn't that what we do also? In real life? I guess they're just simulating us.
I'm currently making a documentary on PBL, and in interviewing a lot of teachers, there's a point where they ALL admit - ti doesn't work for everyone. There are students being left behind.
That's common even in other spheres of life. May be if everyone is given their own projects. Despite the weakness, a project in a group does better than many other methods.

PBL is time consuming and
inhibits focus on key learning objectives which many times have to be retaught. Also group dynamics can be a real distraction. PBL is ok but if a teacher wants to promote a greater depth of learning, direct instruction using multiple modalities and paired interaction still works best for need-to-know content and concepts.
In my experience the amount of need-to-know content is much smaller than most want to admit. I think it is high time to focus on the need-to-be-able-to content. Is it more valuable for a society to have lots of passionless individuals with roughly the same pool of knowledge, or to have many of highly motivated specialists who are able to collectively tackle completely unknown problems by combining all their individual skillsets?
