Book Description
This second edition of Project-Based Learning (PBL) presents an original approach to Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) centric PBL. We define PBL as an “ill-defined task with a well-defined outcome,” which is consistent with our engineering design philosophy and the accountability highlighted in a standards-based environment. This model emphasizes a backward design that is initiated by well-defined outcomes, tied to local, state, or national standard that provide teachers with a framework guiding students’ design, solving, or completion of ill-defined tasks. This book was designed for middle and secondary teachers who want to improve engagement and provide contextualized learning for their students. However, the nature and scope of the content covered in the 14 chapters are appropriate for preservice teachers as well as for advanced graduate method courses. New to this edition is revised and expanded coverage of STEM PBL, including implementing STEM PBL with English Language Learners and the use of technology in PBL. The book also includes many new teacher-friendly forms, such as advanced organizers, team contracts for STEM PBL, and rubrics for assessing PBL in a larger format.

Book Description
"In an era where buzzwords like ′assessment′ and ′accountability′ are used every day in our school systems, a book like this is long overdue. The author clearly explains important terminology while providing easy-to-understand ways to engage in quality assessment in any elementary classroom." —Jennifer Sinsel, Elementary Gifted Teacher Bostic Traditional Magnet School, Andover, KS Use PBAs to design learning experiences that increase student engagement and achievement! There is nothing more rewarding than the moment when a student "gets it." Helping educators reach that goal, Nancy P. Gallavan demonstrates how performance-based assessments (PBAs) can help create stimulating teaching and learning environments in elementary classrooms. This easy-to-understand guide explains how to construct assessments that effectively measure learner performance and allow educators to align curriculum and instruction with students′ needs. With PBAs, teachers can engage students in the learning process, connect the learning to students′ individual lives, and monitor learning outcomes. The author provides: Detailed and clear examples of performance-based assessments Guidelines for creating and using rubrics and assessment templates Checklists, frequently asked questions, graphic organizers, and activities to reinforce the content in each chapter Numerous appendices, including standards for educational assessment, the four domains of learning, and a host of helpful Web sites, readings, and references Developing Performance-Based Assessments, Grades K–5 is a valuable asset for facilitating learning experiences with rewarding outcomes.
