Lessons Learned: The challenges will take longer than expected in order to be thorough with the research.  It's not always easy to complete them and it takes good teamwork and dedication.

Needs/Concerns: It's difficult to plan enough time to allow for the thorough research. How do we allow for time while also making sure that we're covering the standards and everything we need to for each unit?]]> 2016-08-03 13:11:27 UTC https://padlet.com/dps/CBL/wish/117457020 Don Beck https://padlet.com/dps/CBL/wish/117457030 Victories - the motivation of bringing this challenge based learning into the classroom

Lessons Learned:  time management is going to be something I need to work on and have at the front of my mind as I facilitate students as they work on challenges because each group needed a totally different amount of time

Needs/Concerns: Time management, tips for managing multiple groups working on different topics, coming up with different action activities.]]> 2016-08-03 13:11:36 UTC https://padlet.com/dps/CBL/wish/117457032 Julie E jedwards35 https://padlet.com/dps/CBL/wish/117457033 Victory - Completing the framework for 1 CBL

Lessons Learned:  Great new tools that can be used with our students to help them engage and learn. It was interesting to go through the full process and to see that it isn't as easy as it sounds at first - the students will not be able to just "phone it in," but they will (should) thoroughly enjoy the challenge and the process.
Needs/Concerns: More time to work with the tools and concepts before implementing them - but I love that this system is flexible!]]> 2016-08-03 13:11:43 UTC https://padlet.com/dps/CBL/wish/117457040 Alyssa Weyant https://padlet.com/dps/CBL/wish/117457044 I was excited to see some of the solution that our groups came up with and knowing that the students will come up with bigger and better solutions.
