Synopsis

Elementary school mathematics teachers, mathematics coaches, STEM teachers, curriculum leaders, and teacher educators―this book was written for you. Drs. Lee and Galindo share their years of experience training teachers in project-based learning (PBL) with you in mind. This book provides an overview of the essentials of project-based learning (PBL) and the evidence that supports the use of PBL. It showcases PBL units addressing Common Core State Standards for Mathematics for the purpose of demonstrating how PBL works and the learning that results. Rigor, Relevance, and Relationships Rigor, relevance, and relationships are the foundation of PBL. The projects that are shared provide opportunities to learn rigorous mathematics; engage students in authentic, relevant problems, challenges, and issues; and develop positive relationships among the school, teacher, students, and community members.
