This course is designed to help administrators understand how utilizing the 3Cs, rethinking the use of current staff time, and more, can be critical to helping Inquiry- or Project-Based Learning take hold and flourish in the building and community.
This course provides an introduction to the potential power of project-based learning (PBL), which we believe is an important instructional tool for addressing Strand 1 of Ford NGL’s Framework, Transforming Teaching and Learning, and supporting community-connected transformation.
It is the first product in a series focused on learning about, or deepening one’s understanding of, project-based learning. PBL is a foundational element of Ford NGL’s Community-Connected Learning (CCL) product line.
This webinar focuses on how to stand out as a enrollment option for students and parents among all of their school choices. How do you do this? It is all about your school’s or district’s brand!
This is particularly important in larger communities where you may have the same or similar academies in multiple high schools, so that you can best utilize business and community effectively to equitably support academies across the district that fall within one industry sector.
