Transformation 2013 houses an extensive catalog of teacher-written PBLs for core math and science courses. These TEKS-aligned PBLs provide career and 21st Century skills connections. Additionally, some are aligned to the CSCOPE curriculum.
In 2010, we have included an optional feedback system for each PBL. This system is designed so that educators using PBL in the classroom can discuss the changes and modifications they made to the uploaded PBLs. Please remember that this is a forum for professional discussion of these PBLs. Respectful, well-thought out suggestions for improving the quality of the PBLs are always welcome. If you have a criticism, please make a suggestion for improvement as well.
Over 2010-2011, these PBLs will be reformatted to the official T-STEM PBL structure. Check back often as we improve to meet your needs more effectively!
Do you have a PBL you would like to share with other teachers? Contact Us.
