PBL World, scheduled June 18-22 in lovely Napa, CA, will bring together nearly 400 educators who understand that Project Based Learning is a key strategy for creating an effective and engaging 21st Century classroom.

This is a conference unlike any other. Monday through Wednesday attendees will participate in BIE's classic PBL 101 workshop, which engages them in learning the principles for designing, assessing and managing standards-focused projects as well as using performance assessments to judge the rigorous work generated by 21st Century learners. On Thursday and Friday participants can sign up for advanced all-day sessions that feature such topics as PBL and Critical Thinking, Creativity and Innovation, Web 2.0, and Global PBL.

School and district teams can choose to enroll on Thursday and Friday in our Coaching Intensives, working on a focused topic (common rubrics, curriculum mapping, implementation calendars, etc.) with one of our National Faculty members.

Mornings will be devoted to short, engaging keynotes by educational thought leaders. Afternoons will feature a series of Ignite sessions in which PBL World participants share their big ideas and best practices. Evenings, well, we are going to be in Napa...

Did we mention that that conference is being held in Napa, home to hundreds of wineries and award-winning restaurants, just 90 minutes from downtown San Francisco?

Did we mention that the conference is scheduled to precede ISTE, which begins down the coast in San Diego on June 24?
