"As Artificial Intelligence reshapes our world, schools are increasingly embracing project-based learning (PBL) to enhance skills like collaboration, communication, creativity, problem-solving, media literacy, and digital citizenship.
Tech Staff Developers Lauren Lavelle and Mike Davola from Garden City Schools are at the forefront of this educational evolution with their ""PBL By Design"" initiative. Integrating insights from Jon Spencer, Stanford's d.school, David Lee EdTech, among others, they have crafted a unique, structured approach that intertwines PBL and Design Thinking into the curriculum.
The “PBL by Design” Framework empowers students to create innovative solutions to real-world problems. It goes beyond traditional learning, encouraging students to apply their knowledge and skills in practical, impactful ways. This hands-on approach not only enriches their learning experience but also prepares them to be proactive, creative problem-solvers in a rapidly changing world."
