Plan for a highly interactive learning experience! Facilitated by one of our expert National Faculty, PBL Quickstart is a balanced blend of direct instruction, video analysis, hands-on work, resource sharing, and peer collaboration. The workshop includes whole group work, small group discussions, refl ection and critique, individual learning (with some voice and choice), and several built-in break times. The workshop is 6 hours long, with an additional 1 hour for lunch. |

| Evaluation Summary Notes | -Participants found the facilitator's modeling, engagement and relatability most impactful
-Many highlighted how Cheryl demonstrated what PBL looks like in practice - especially showing that PBL can work across grade levels and subjects, including Regents-level courses -They appreciated the practical strategies, clear examples and the facilitator's responsiveness and encouragement |
| Needed Changes | -The main suggestion was for more time - several participants wanted additional days to explore the PBL library and plan implementation
-Time for planning and collaboration was also a consistent challenge |
| Next Steps | -Participants plan to begin implementing PBL in "baby steps" adapting one or more units to follow a PBL structure
-They intend to integrate more inquiry-based learning, allow students to drive learnin and balanca direct instruction with project work -Many now see PBL as manageable, structured and adaptable to their existing curriculum rather than as a large end-of-unit project |
