Session description

Learn how Wilson County Schools implemented a project-based learning (PBL) program for math enrichment for students in grades 4-8. You'll discover how to use data to create authentic lessons that incorporate real-world issues, research, technology, literacy and problem-solving.

Purpose & objective

During this course, teachers will learn how to create authentic lessons that incorporate real world issues, research, technology, literacy, and problem solving. Teachers will be given free PBL resources and examples of how each PBL was adapted for different learning levels.
