teachers received project based learning training during the summer of 2019

Project based learning allows students to directly apply theoretical concepts to real world concerns. An additional 35 teachers will be trained during the summer of 2020. Our hope is that Real World Learning sessions and activities will continue to grow as teachers familiarize themselves with the process and see the benefits firsthand.
