In this special episode of the PBL Blitz series, Andrea interviews a familiar voice: Josh is the special guest on this Blitz episode to discuss PBL vs. PrBL (Problem Based Learning) and the authentic application of learning on a smaller scale. Especially in the math classroom, PrBL gives teachers and students an opportunity to engage with standards in an authentic application that is not quite the extent of a full PBL. The need for this could be because of the way standards flow or fit together, or maybe it is a first step for a newer facilitator of classroom PBL to start to integrate the strategies of PBL into the classroom. No matter the purpose, PrBL is a great way to incorporate the “Spirit of PBL” into the classroom on a small scale for engaging and authentic learning opportunities. Enjoy this special PBL Blitz episode!
