Published by Buck Institute for Education (BIE) and authored by editor in chief John Larmer, this short, staple-bound 40-page color booklet explains Project Based Learning (PBL) for K-12 parents and other members of a school community such as school boards, school/district staff, business/community partners, and even older students. It is a unique product in the field and unlike BIE's other publications, which are aimed at teachers and other educators. This booklet will help educators build understanding and support for PBL in a school or district. An Intro to Project Based Learning: Preparing Students for Tomorrow, Engaging Them Today is written in an easy-to-read, jargon-free style and features colorful graphic design. It has sections on why PBL is important for today's K-12 students, what PBL is - with answers to FAQs about it - and what to expect at a school using PBL. Also included are powerful quotes from students and parents about the value of PBL, example projects from various subjects and grade levels, and links to websites and videos for more information.

The new second edition of our popular PBL Starter Kit publication for middle and high school teachers has been updated to reflect our model for Gold Standard PBL, and now contains nine project examples from various grade levels and subject areas. The PBL Starter Kit is written for middle school and high school teachers who are new to PBL. It contains easy to read, to-the-point advice about designing, assessing, and managing your first, relatively simple project, with examples and tools to help you plan it well. It can be used as a supplement to BIE professional development workshops or as a stand-alone guide to PBL.
