Project-based learning (PBL) differs from traditional projects in several key ways. In PBL, teachers develop problems based on content standards for students to solve in teams. Teachers provide coaching and instruction to support student learning. Effective PBL includes front-loading the problem, developing solutions through research and planning, and creating a final presentation or product. Teachers guide the process by beginning with the desired learning outcomes, crafting an engaging driving question, developing scenarios for students to explore, and planning assessments to evaluate learning.

In the context of supporting civil society organisations working in the field of the democratic transition in Tunisia, Democracy Reporting International, in partnership with inProgress, produced a practical guide covering the techniques and training of adults. Members of civil society organisations are often requested to give trainings, provide knowledge, or strengthen competencies in various fields. These fields include, among others, civics, electoral observation, and legal reforms, including those linked to the setting up of a new Tunisian Constitution.
Teaching others new aptitudes, methods, or procedures requires that the trainer to be aware of different parameters in order to ensure the best learning methodology. Identifying learning needs beforehand, determining the training objective, or managing the audience are some of the essential elements that must be taken into account.
Therefore, this guide emphasizes the elements on which learning efficacy and teaching competencies depend. It enables trainers to use learning principles intended for adults and to acquire a guiding pedagogy and interactive methods in line with active communication principles, while creating a positive environment to optimise the learning process.
Collaborating with inProgress, DRI has provided this practical guide to accompany the trainers through all the steps of the training process, from conception to setting up and follow-up of trainings.
This manual has been developed on the basis of three Training of Trainers courses, which were conducted in Tunis, Tunisia between October 2013 and January 2014.

For this assignment, you need to assume the role of a classroom educ.docxevonnehoggarth79783
For this assignment, you need to assume the role of a classroom educator. This can be based on a class that you are currently teaching, one that you have previously taught, or one that you hope to teach in the future. Suppose you are participating in a department team meeting with the other teachers in your grade level discussing an upcoming unit.. One of the teachers indicates that she plans to distribute the same packets she used last year and schedule five days of independent seat work for her students to complete the packets by locating answers in the course textbook. This would be followed by a written exam covering the material in the packets.
You have been aware for some time that the students in this teacher’s class are frustrated, bored, and worst of all, not really learning anything important about the content as shown through the student data. This could be your opportunity to get her to try something new and more valuable to students. You explain to this teacher that you plan to implement a week-long problem-based learning experience for your students, involving group projects, computer time, and class presentations; you would like to share this plan with her and to partner together on the project.
In this assignment, you will apply principles of project and problem based learning (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcGOe_JsXUY) to the design of a specific learning experience within a culturally relevant and collaborative learning experience that facilitates the 21st century skills of creativity and innovation. Review the Week Five Instructor Guidance for detailed assistance on preparing for and completing this assignment, including access to resources that will help you identify the characteristics of problem-based learning environments. Next, create your assignment to meet the content and written communication expectations below.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Editor's Notes
This is our driving question for the session-we will look at how to develop pbl instruction. PBL is naturally differentiated-students take on a variety of roles, so by using PBL you will be creating pathways for students learning.
This is like problem solving the way that people do it in their lives and work: The problem is front loaded. Next slide: expectations for performance are given early on, so that students can work with more purpose, and often know their grades before they get the assessment back from the teacher.
Gives the big picture of PBL. Discuss the idea of structuring the learning experiences after student ’ s need to knows, rather than pre-teaching and assuming what the student ’ s skills are. Also point out that while most of the problem is front loaded, as a teacher, you can introduce more information later in the game to make the problem more complex – which is why we use the circle to indicate process

Ask the group to share out on their understanding of each step and generate a list of need to knows. Let them know that this is the process that parallel the Buck PBL Starter Kit . Math & Science: often the “ scenario ” and the “ driving question ” are hard to distinguish.
Point out that projects must focus on both content and 21st century skills. Discuss how the two can support each other. Trainer: Use your own project that you are highlighting. Replace the comments in the last two bullets with your subject, and the learning outcomes that you addressed in your project.
Using the Project Overview Form (POF), the team teachers were able to fill out the grade level, subject/course information, and list the specific standards that were being covered in the project. Make sure to point out the integration of standards in this project. Trainer: Take a screen shot of your own project overview form, and insert it here.
Trainer - Replace with your own Driving Question for your own project
Trainer – replace the problem statement above with the problem statement for your own project.
Talk about how we must know what success looks like in order to lead the students toward that goal. Trainer – You can either attach your own rubric, or you can take a screen shot of your rubric. Either way, you will want your rubric open in a separate doc, so that they can see what it is about. Usually all you have to do is focus on one row. Avoid getting into too many specifics about the rubric – they will have a rubric writing workshop later.
Trainer - Attach your own entry doc here. Point out that many teachers write the entry doc before the rubric…but that there is no “ correct ” way to do this. HOWEVER…they should be done one very soon after the other, so that there is good alignment.
Discuss what scaffolding is and how they might plan out their scaffolding activities (list out skills and outcomes of the project and backward map support that is needed for each skill). Trainer: replace these activities with a sampling of your own scaffolding activities
