Based off the name "Project Based Learning", it's not so tough to figure out that it's all about learning through the development of a project. Step 1: Dream up the Big Idea Before you can begin constructing the driving question you need to develop the "Big Idea" that the project will be based on. What is PBL and why should I care?
