=Challenged Based Learning-CBL=

In quarter four, these students will be finding specific places on campus that will lead them into a Challenge Based Learning Project. Again, Challenge Based Learning requires that students work collaboratively to solve a real world problem. With these challenges, the students work on a variety of academic skills on a much deeper level. The framework to this curriculum consist of the following: -**Big Idea:** a broad concept that can be narrowed down by asking questions and exploring its different aspects. -**Essential Question(s)**: Comes out of the Big Idea and helps identify what is important and helps narrow down the topic and define the idea. **-The Challenge:** Comes out of the essential question(s) and students are asked to create a solution that can result in a measurable action or actions. **-Guiding Questions**: These questions are generated by the students and are based on what they need to know to solve the problem. **-Guiding Activities:** Activities to help students solve their problem and to gather resources. **-Solution(s):** Should be student generated, require student action, be thoughtful, clear, concrete and publishable in one form or another. It is going to be fun to see what these students come up with for these projects.
