PROJECT-BASED LEARNING

Project-Based Learning (PBL) allows K-12 teachers to take teaching and learning to the next level with inquiry-driven education. This approach provides the opportunity for students to not only learn content skills, but also apply knowledge in relevant, real-world applications that engage them in action-oriented work.

Download our free white paper, RTI’s Approach to Supporting High-Quality Project Based Learning in Schools, to clarify how PBL promotes inquiry and critical thought by engaging with students to define problems, formulate relevant questions, analyze and evaluate information, create and refine products, and present and defend their work to a public audience.

This resource offers:

• Ways to design units that give both teacher and students ownership of the project
• Tips for creating an inquiry-driven, student-centered learning framework
• How experiential learning can build understanding from both the student and teacher perspectives
• Evidenced-based instructional practices to support effective teaching and learning
• Tools to support the planning and design of high quality PBL units within and across content areas
