General Questions
-
Q: As an attendee, how will I access the online sessions and activities?
Workshops will be facilitated via Zoom. We will be providing Zoom instructions and resources for all registered attendees well in advance of each workshop.
-
Q: Will I still be able to interact with my workshop facilitator and other participants?
Yes! Your learning will be guided by a member of our expert National Faculty, who is prepared to create an engaging and highly interactive experience.
You will experience Project Based Learning in action together with your fellow participants — including opportunities for large- and small-group discussions, as well as direct communication with your facilitator.
-
Q: Can I substitute my other PBL training or experience for the PBL 101 Workshop which is a prerequisite for the PBL 201 Workshop?
Because PBL 201 Workshops build upon learning from the PBLWorks PBL 101, participants must have completed this prerequisite to be eligible to register. Having familiarity with the PBLWorks approach, resources, and tools will be necessary for optimal success in this workshop. Completion of training conducted by other organizations will not be considered sufficient preparation.
For the PBL Coaching Workshop, we will consider other PBL training or experience as a substitute for the PBL 101 prerequisite.
-
Q: I have several years of PBL experience; do I still need the PBLWorks PBL 101 Workshop prerequisite?
PBL 201 requires deep familiarity with the PBLWorks approach, resources, and tools learned in the PBLWorks PBL 101 Workshop. As a result, PBL 201 participants must have completed PBL 101 offered by PBLWorks to be eligible to register. Attendance of training conducted by other organizations will not be considered sufficient as a prerequisite.
For the PBL Coaching Workshop, we will consider other PBL training or experience as a substitute for the PBL 101 prerequisite.
