17. The sooner you start talking to your
colleagues about your ideas, the
better your project will be. If you don’t
want to talk to people at your own
school, you can find lots of teachers
who are excited about project-based
learning by going online.
This means presenting your plans to a
group of colleagues, who will give
you constructive feedback, come up with
ideas that you haven’t thought
of, and warn you of potential problems
that you may not have anticipated.

20. “we need to invert the conventional
classroom dynamic: instead of
teaching information and content
first, and then asking students to
answer questions about it
second, we should put the
question/ problem first,
and then facilitate students with
information and guidance as they
seek the answer and hold them
accountable for the excellence of
their solutions and of their
presentation of their results”.

22. What if?
At least half of the
time they spend on
schoolwork must be
on stuff that can’t
end up in a folder
we put away.
It should be because
their work is
something they
create on their
own, or with
others, that has real
value in the real
world.
