"The desire to construct a tangible product of the highest quality is a powerful motivator for students, especially when that product has both intrinsic value for the students and value to an authentic external audience. Only when they sense the relevance and authenticity of classroom work will most students commit to the very real labor of learning." (Terry Roberts, NPC)
Advanced Project Design
Would you like to have time to finish planning a complete Paideia Project focused on the key ideas of your curriculum?
Join us for the Advanced Paideia Project Institute to fully align your curriculum, instruction, and assessment plans. The goal for this Institute is to help you design the essential “micro components” of a Paideia Project: your daily lesson plans, targeted assessment tools, and a detailed student calendar.
Given the scope of a Paideia Project it’s easy to brainstorm ideas and get a plan started. This Institute is about finalizing critical details to ensure a high quality student production or performance of real value to an audience outside the classroom.
