PROBLEM BASED LEARNING UNITS


click here
(PBL Page: Living Environment)


STANYS PRESENTATIONS: Who's the Daddy? has moved to PBL page (link above)
Elementary PBL: The Dried Up Water Slide (Elementary Science link below)

These units have been developed using methods of PBL and interrupted case based learning in order to provide engaging stories and inquiry lessons which provide a learning platform in which students can actively participate, analyze and apply concepts from the NYS core curriculum standards for Living Environment and Physical Setting Earth Science. At this time, many of the LE PBL's are posted. There will be more to come in the near future.


WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS SITE?

This site was originally developed to help teachers and students in the Department of Exceptional Children at BOCES #2. Therefore, you will find a combination of teacher directed lessons, web links and schedules. You will also find that you can have students work from the site on specific pages (i.e. Genetics) and complete lessons directly from worksheets and animations on the computer. The problem based learning units (under construction) can be self directed, teacher led or both. Please contact me by e-mail if you have questions or suggestions to make the site more useful. There is a math site that has recently been added to this support page. This page has NYSED updates and will eventually contain links to lessons.
