“Did you hear Grace? She still has tests, but she also has alternative ways to demonstrate her learning. It’s not about one or the other. It’s about bringing PBL in. There’s still quizzes and tests.”

— Ryan Steuer, Founder of Magnify Learning, Host of The PBL Playbook Host

It's the second Wednesday of the month, so it's time for a PBL Blitz episode. This week we are going to be hearing from learners instead of the facilitators. I toured Babcock Neighborhood School in Babcock Ranch, FL. It's one of the Magnify Learning demonstration sites. Babcock Ranch teachers have been through a lot of PBL workshops.

The majority of their staff is PBL Certified. I toured the school and got to see the learners in action and ask them questions about PBL learning. You’ll get to hear the answers straight from the learners in this fun episode. You’ll love hearing these responses and how they are connected to experiences, not just bits of knowledge.
