Applying Multiple Lenses to the Study of Project-Based Learning to Promote Equitable Educational Opportunity
Tue, April 17, 8:15 to 9:45am, Millennium Broadway New York Times Square, Floor: Seventh Floor, Room 7.04Session Type: Structured Poster Session
Abstract
Consistent with the AERA program call for “build[ing] knowledge to support the quest for equitable educational opportunity,” the researchers in this structured poster session are engaged in design-based research to inform curriculum development and instructional enactment of project-based learning (PBL) in the elementary grades. Working closely with classroom teachers, all of whom are teaching in under-resourced communities (both urban and rural), the researchers in this session are engaged in disciplined inquiry drawing upon multiple methods in multi-year classroom-based research. The findings focus on learning opportunities for both teachers and students when the goal is sense making in the context of the three-dimensional learning called for by the Next Generation Science Standards and the Common Core State Standards.
