 | | The Buck Institute for Education, along with university partners and GLEF, has developed a PBL Online Resource for Teachers that gives strategies for designing your classroom projects, has an online library, a place to share projects and ideas, and a collection of examples. It is based on the BIE Handbook which we described several years ago. | |
