Introduction to PBL: Planning Engaging Project-based Learning Units
We know that students thrive when they’re given the chance to make connections between their learning and their lives. But implementing PBL can feel daunting.
NTN’s Intro to PBL intensive workshop equips educators with the foundational tools to design and implement adaptable, student-centered projects. Through active, collaborative learning, educators build the skills to create PBL units that not only align with academic standards but also encourage critical thinking, problem-solving, and purposeful learning. By centering student voice and choice, schools foster environments where curiosity leads to discovery—and learning feels relevant and rewarding.
