Exploring Project-Based Learning through Real-World Driving Questions

This project-based learning guide emphasizes formulating authentic driving questions that stem from real-life problems to engage students. By fostering inquiry, students are encouraged to think critically and creatively, rather than just seeking the right answers. Insights from Diane Ravitch highlight the risks of over-relying on multiple-choice assessments. The driving questions can range from local community issues to global challenges and encourage student collaboration and problem-solving. This approach not only enhances learning but prepares students for real-world complexities.
