Are you new to PBL? Do you want to know how a problem begins and how a unit evolves? Do you know the difference between problems and projects? Want to learn how to adapt PBL for gifted learners? Find answers through simulation, research, and classroom examples. Most of all, experience the benefit of student engagement when learning is framed in a PBL story!
