PEDU 9084: Creating New Projects for the Classroom – Echoes (1 – 3)

Designed for the educator who wants to enliven their curriculum and increase student learning with new projects, this course provides the opportunity to earn graduate-level professional development credit for adding project resources to their arsenal of teaching tools! Building on ideas garnered or conceived from professional development workshops, conferences, webinars, or training, you can work at your own pace to develop new projects for your classroom: an activity or lesson, a PowerPoint, guidelines for a project-based learning activity, a new student activity center…whatever type of project fits your needs. The objective of this course is for you to develop projects and activities that will actively engage your students in the learning process. Once you have implemented your newly developed project in your classroom, reflect over what you and your students have learned through the activity in a written reflection to submit, along with proof of project completion and your time log, for evaluation.
