The Learning Futurists' Guide to Project Based Learning: A Workshop from Clare & David Price OBE
This Episode took me to Australia, where I met and interviewed husband and wife team David And Claire Price, whose organisation, Educational Arts, works with schools globally to transform engagement in learning, for students and teachers. Through leadership of the radical ‘ Learning Futures’ project, David and Clare have developed innovative approaches to transform engagement. Building on what works in schools in the UK, USA and Australia, they offer practical ‘how-to’ training programmes for school leaders and teachers. I was lucky enough to attend one at Hilltop Road Primary, a public school in Parramatta, Sydney, at the beginning of March this year.
I met David after reading his book, Open, and became obsessed with his idea that anyone with access to technology who is community-minded can change the world. He is known as a “Learning Futurist”, and he and Clare are uniquely committed to making sure that the future of education becomes a reality now.
Project Based Learning, when you start to talk about it , seems simple enough. It supposes that students who engage in a project that is personal to them that is shown to connect with real-world meaning, can be an immersive learning experience that builds student agency.
