Transforming Teaching Today – PBL and Instructional Design

Online Discussion Forum Participation

Discussion

Join Jason Ravitz to discuss Problem or Project Based Learning (PBL) and discover what instructional design looks like for this approach to learning. You’ll also find answers to questions like, “What does the research say about PBL in K-12 settings?” and “What do teachers need to know to effectively use this approach in their practices?”

Jason is Director of Research at the Buck Institute for Education (BIE), responsible for providing the vision, designing, and carrying out various research programs. He is also responsible for large scale studies, advancing knowledge about the process of teaching and learning, and refining innovative practices with teachers and BIE staff.
