This professional development training equips educators with practical strategies to implement PBL effectively while exploring how to incorporate Genius Hour into the classroom.

Transform Your Classroom with PBL

Imagine a classroom where students are deeply engaged, asking big questions, and solving real-world problems with enthusiasm.
