Project Based Learning: How to Take the Road Less Traveled

Project Based Learning - How to Take The Road Less Traveled - is a practical guide for practical teachers. It includes examples and worksheets for each K-12 level (elementary, middle school & high school) to get started today. In addition, an extensive research section is included so that the teacher can become familiar with the rich research base related to this method of teaching and learning. If you are no longer satisfied with drill & kill, and really want your student(s) to LEARN, this is the methodology for you and your child(ren).
