Implementing PBL in Early Childhood
Authors: Sara Lev, Erin Starkey and Amanda Clark Friday, July 31 | 8:00-8:45 am EST. Many believe there are too many barriers for implementing PBL in the early elementary grades. Join these PBLWorks National Faculty and Implementing PBL in Early Childhood authors as they share how PBL works - and can thrive in early childhood classrooms. Their just-released book is flying off the shelf as early educators are seeking out these strategies. |
The PBLWorks 5th annual PBL Ohio Institute is the Midwest's premier Project Based Learning event of the year. Each year, we bring together over 500 PK-16 teachers, instructional coaches, and school and district leaders who want to connect with each other and learn more about PBL. It's not like other conferences that have a variety of short sessions by many different presenters—it's an institute, where participants go through a continuous multi-day experience. We believe PBL transforms students - and the PBL Ohio Institute transforms educators!
