None of us enjoy being taught at, and yet that is what too many students

endure in their classroom. Project Based Learning: Real Questions.

Real Answers. How to Unpack PBL and Inquiry is an inspiring book

focusing on a process where the teacher and students learn together,

and the authors provide a step-by-step process on how to do that.

This book is a must-read for educators who aspire to create more personalized

and inquiry-based experiences for all students. Too often the message

is that you have to start from scratch. Instead, Cooper and Murphy

share insights and practical strategies to address the most pressing questions

about project based learning and will empower you to build from

what you are already doing to create amazing learning opportunities for

your students.

Learning, Author of Learner-Centered Innovation

The authors provide educators with the keys to deliver the type of learning

all students deserve: engaging, hands-on, and on the path to caring about

and solving problems that matter. As someone who facilitates project based

learning with students, I'll be referring to this book, over and over again.

Author of Hacking Digital Learning Strategies

Students around the world eagerly embrace learning experiences that

are DIFFERENT, that are more than traditional factual recall and procedural

regurgitation. In this phenomenal PBL resource, Cooper and

Murphy unpack the concrete logistics of what it takes to facilitate deeper

learning, greater student agency, and more real-world authentic work in

your school. This book is full of useful templates and protocols, answers to

challenging questions, and ideas that will energize student learning. Use

the practical strategies in this book to embrace the "productive struggle"

and make learning different (Please? Asking for a few million students . . .).
