• Getting Smart discusses frameworks for high-quality project-based learning (HQPBL) and delivers some action items for schools that want to step up their efforts in this area.

• One major component of implementing HQPBL: Ask students about it! No program can really show efficacy if it doesn't incorporate all voices.

•Here are 5 ways that project-based learning is culturally responsive.

一个growing number of educators around the world believe that project-based learning (PBL) is an important instructional approach that allows students to master academic skills and content knowledge, develop skills necessary for future success, and build the personal agency needed to tackle life’s and the world’s challenges.

Many districts are either already using PBL or are on the verge of using this approach in classrooms. Educators can find a wealth of resources on how to plan for and get started with PBL, but until recently, there were far fewer resources on what the outcome of high-quality student experiences ought to look like. As we move toward more student-centered approaches, we needed a framework that is just that — centered on the students.
