In this very interactive and hands-on workshop, you will experience the 21st-century, project-based classroom (as much as is possible within the confines of time and space!) Our workshops are not "sit and get"! You will do some listening, and you will also be analyzing, teaching, collaborating, creating, presenting, assessing, and reflecting!
You will collaborate, then create a unique plan, personalized by you for your students! Be prepared to launch your PBL21 Curriculum for the new school year!
The Gamified Online Courses have somewhat modified activities, since you could be doing this workshop by yourself. You couldn't physically move around or interact with others in various groups if you're the only person in the room. You can do the activities in other ways.
We must warn you - be prepared to have students knocking the doors down to get into school! You will be receiving visits, notes and phone calls from parents asking what you are doing that has caused such a transformation in their child - who is suddenly really excited about school!
Finally, watch those standardized test scores soar!
* Note - you will be introduced to a variety of AI tools aligned to purposes achieved in your unit, from subject matter disciplines to personalized learning, classroom management, content creation, assistive technologies, collaborative learning, assessment and testing. This is not an AI Training workshop. If you would like AI Training specifically we can recommend excellent resources.
