https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS Tools to foster project based learning in asynchronous and synchronous learning environments. en-us 2020-10-19 18:09:52 UTC 2022-08-11 00:32:49 UTC hello@padlet.com chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258568526 Padlet is a tool that allows students to collaborate, demonstrate their knowledge or brainstorm as a group. Students could use this to post their findings about ocean pollution in order to brainstorm for a PBL unit focused on lessening California's contribution to ocean pollution. This tool facilitates students in attaining skills that allow them to be creative communicators as well as knowledge constructors (ISTEb, 2022)]]> 2022-08-11 00:02:21 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258568526 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258571652 Students are able to post videos demonstrating their knowledge, communicating with their peers and teacher, or to collaborate in a more personal manner when. Students could record their culminating PBL unit presentation focusing on how their school can reduce their waste based on their research. This platform allows students to display positive digital citizenship, while communicating complex ideas through an effective medium (ISTEb, 2022).]]> 2022-08-11 00:07:32 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258571652 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258573792 Kami allows students to annotate and analyse information in a collaborative manner from afar. Students are able to provide video feedback, written annotations, and so much more when using Kami. When students are not able to be in person together, this tool allows them to catch up with their peers work on their own time. Kami supports student in their knowledge construction, as well as provides them with a platform to communicate their thoughts with their peers (ISTEb, 2022). ]]> 2022-08-11 00:11:07 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258573792 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258575633 Student who are not able to meet in real time can use Trello as a time management tool. Students working on a PBL assignment together can designate tasks and check on one another's progress through use of Trello. As students monitor their own learning, they are becoming empowered learners (ISTEb, 2022).]]> 2022-08-11 00:13:57 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258575633 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258577034 Mural is a virtual whiteboard that can be used by students anywhere they are! Students can use this tool to brainstorm their PBL projects together or work through important research together. This tool allows students to learn how to communicate in a creative and effective manner, thus enabling them to become creative communicators (ISTEb, 2022).]]> 2022-08-11 00:16:03 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258577034 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258577986 Video conferencing can allow students to have real-time collaboration with one another as well as other people in the area they are studying. For example, a group of students studying the extinction of pandas can Zoom with a Zoologist in order to gain more knowledge about the topic. Students become global citizens through use of virtual conferencing when using it in this manner (ISTEb, 2022). ]]> 2022-08-11 00:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258577986 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258579988 Google slides and docs is a powerful tool to use when able to meet in real-time being that while students are on a virtual call, they can also be adding to a document or slide deck together. This allows student to work through the content and creation of an artifact together, though they are not in the same room. Through this combination of tools, students are becoming innovative designers (ISTEb, 2022). ]]> 2022-08-11 00:20:44 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258579988 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258584820 This is a tool for students to demonstrate their knowledge and create their final artifact for the PBL unit. This tool can be used in either environment, as most can, however it is best used when students are able to meet in real time at some point. This is due to the complexity of putting together a website a final artifact that will most likely contain other artifacts of learning within it. Students will communicate complex ideas, as a group of third graders did about bring food from farms to tables in a quicker more cost effective manner. They then created a website with their ideas, solution and findings. This proves to be a method of enabling students to become empowered learners who are able to communicate complex ideas in a creative and effective manner (ISTEb, 2022).]]> 2022-08-11 00:28:20 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258584820 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258586519 This is a tool for teachers to implement when assigning PBL assignments. Students are able to use it to create artifacts, or teachers can use it to teach about a specific topic and then students can analyze the research. This allows students to become critical thinkers (ISTEb, 2022). ]]> 2022-08-11 00:30:58 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258586519 chutchison4 https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258587631 Youtube is powerful research tool or a wonderful presentation method. Students can create a playlist of their own learning artifacts surrounding a topic. This tool allows students to be creative and effective communicators, as well as critical thinkers in terms of analyzing for reliability and accuracy (ISTEb, 2022).]]> 2022-08-11 00:32:49 UTC https://padlet.com/chutchison4/PBLTOOLS/wish/2258587631
