Watch Gold Standard PBL in Action
These 7- to 10-minute videos show examples of Gold Standard PBL projects in action – across many grade levels, subject areas, and settings.
Each shows four phases of the project...
- The launch (entry event and driving question)
- Building knowledge and skills
- Developing products and answers to the driving question
