Heidi Hayes Jacobs: What year are we preparing our students for?
Table Talk • What will it take to get to the point of developing curriculum as Jacobs suggests? • What can we do that is in our control right now? http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1366&bih=664&tbm=isch&tbnid=xoKwzV4jwhnrdM:&imgrefurl=http://cedsgt.com/teamblog/general/team-diversity-2/&docid=aSRcYfZwofVjwM&imgurl=http://cedsgt.com/teamblog/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/7-Free-Teamwork-Clip-Art-Of-A-Circle-Of-Diverse-People-Holding-Hands-11-300x298.jpg&w=300&h=298&ei=ToEQT6E8hpO3B8nNwfwB&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=725&sig=114730900127101918374&page=6&tbnh=133&tbnw=134&start=103&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:4,s:103&tx=72&ty=52
What we ValuedThen and Now 20th Century View 21st Century View Generating and applying knowledge Using creative and critical approaches to problem-solving and decision-making Educational Success = Extrapolating from what we know and applying that knowledge to novel situations • Completing homework and class work correctly • Mastering the basics must occur before students move to broader skills • Educational Success = Reproducing Knowledge
A Generation Ago… • Teachers could expect that what they taught would last students a lifetime. • One of our greatest challenges was FINDING information. • Our major task was to be able to RECALL it. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1366&bih=664&tbm=isch&tbnid=ffIgHt8bPXC-hM:&imgrefurl=http://etseq.law.harvard.edu/2011/09/calling-all-research-assistants/&docid=V1tM9aDn74BVyM&imgurl=http://etseq.law.harvard.edu/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Card_Catalog_Student-401x600.jpg&w=401&h=600&ei=T1oQT4VPp-PRAZHw_KwD&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=305&sig=114730900127101918374&page=3&tbnh=132&tbnw=90&start=40&ndsp=20&ved=1t:429,r:13,s:40&tx=14&ty=95
Now… • Our world is experiencing rapid economic and social change • Schools must prepare students for jobs that have not yet been created, technologies that have not yet been invented, and problems that we do not yet know will arise.

Students begin an extended process of collaborative inquiry in response to a complex question, problem, or challenge • Students learn all they need to know first • A project oriented toward their unit of study is assigned at the end
Problem and process are the emphasis • Students analyze, evaluate, research, and create new meaning • Project or product is the emphasis • Students reproduce knowledge or extend knowledge from what has been learned
What PBL is NOT… Problem-Based is not Project-Oriented http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=UAQ&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1366&bih=664&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&tbnid=yWbOO6dulck0-M:&imgrefurl=http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php%3Ft%3D116014531%26page%3D1&docid=MseUwQdbdjjWZM&imgurl=http://elysciencecenter.com/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/Science_Fair_Project_057.1993154_std.JPG&w=800&h=600&ei=I1gQT6qsPJKTtwekkq3vAQ&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=398&sig=114730900127101918374&page=1&tbnh=136&tbnw=181&start=0&ndsp=24&ved=1t:429,r:2,s:0&tx=114&ty=61
Essential to Success in PBL • Establish a need to know and do. • Capturing interest begins the inquiry process for students • An entry event should engage students emotionally and intellectually and make them feel invested. http://www.google.com/imgres?num=10&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1366&bih=664&tbm=isch&tbnid=b2_8zpvod2R-LM:&imgrefurl=http://www.relevantclassroom.com/blog/posts/FdxbQVIpg8177,bx4910,bx4909,bx4907,cb23064%3Fcat%3D1149276%26page_no%3D4&docid=fpCBR7eeu7jy8M&imgurl=http://static3.vipasuite.com/resources/dyn/files/212010z791fcc85/_fn/questionmark_think.jpg&w=347&h=346&ei=UJUQT47bH8KItwepzOyZAg&zoom=1&iact=rc&dur=358&sig=114730900127101918374&sqi=2&page=1&tbnh=134&tbnw=115&start=0&ndsp=27&ved=1t:429,r:18,s:0&tx=65&ty=53
FACS Entry Document A customer experienced flu-like symptoms twelve hours after eating shrimp and steak at a Japanese restaurant. The restaurant had previously passed all health inspections. The food was prepared on the table in front of patrons. Since the chef used an FDA appropriate means to sanitize his hands and wore a hat, the restaurant denied that the customer developed his symptoms from his meal. Your job as the health inspector is to determine the cause of the customer's illness, and provide a rationale for your findings.

Justification for PBL • Open-ended, ill-structured problems allow for creative thinking and problem solving • Collaborative decision making helps students to communicate and look to each other as sources of wisdom http://blog.inigral.com/beyond-facebook/
Why Now is the Perfect Time • New Standards & New Local Curricula • Emphasis on 21st Century Skills • Alignment with Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy • College and Career Readiness (CCR)
