Innovation Celebration PBL, Design Your Own Invention, Project-based Learning

Project-based learning allows for students to engage in solving a real-world problem or answering a complex question. They demonstrate their knowledge and skills by creating a public product or presentation for a real audience. Students have choice throughout the course of the project, including how to show mastery. Students reflect on progress and engage in the feedback process.

PRINT AND GO!!!

Throughout is project, students will complete the design thinking process to create an invention that solves a problem of their choice. After completing research on an invention throughout history, as well as a scientist profile, students become the inventors themselves!  They will use the engineering design process to identify a problem and design and test inventions that help to solve it! Showcase student work by displaying student inventions in the “HALL OF INVENTORS”
