We now thrive in a culture of innovation. More than half of the jobs our children will pursue in their future life do not even exist yet.
Accordingly, as teachers, we need to provide pupils with the proper tools to navigate a changing world. What learners need to acquire at schools are competencies and skills to be successful in an unknown future – rather than content knowledge and conformity!
The course will introduce participants to Performance-Based Learning (PBL), i.e., as an innovative approach to teaching and learning that is ready for the challenge of innovation.
Performance-Based Learning (PBL) focuses on creating tasks related to real-world situations, and that require learners to teamwork and deploy a full set of competencies to succeed.
As such, PBL allows pupils to demonstrate their acquired knowledge and skills in practical and applied settings and prompts the development of soft skills and higher-order thinking skills (HOTS).
The course will familiarize the participants with the different aspects of structuring teaching and learning in the PBL approach.
Participants will learn to value process over product and discover non-traditional methods to develop and evaluate children’s abilities and attitudes as well as their achievements. Moreover, participants will understand how to implement the ‘four Cs’ (critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity) into classroom activities.
The course will also offer precious advice and tips on how to make students fully engaged, take ownership of their work, and activate their higher-order thinking skills.
By the end of the course, participants will feel more confident in increasing their learners’ motivation, real cohesiveness, and the overall school climate.
They will master the basics of a new methodology to provide children with the essential skills and practice they will need for careers as they revolutionize over time.
