Overview
When educators believe they are capable of overcoming challenges and that their work matters, they make a lasting impact on students’ academic success. Using a problem-based learning (PBL) approach, the authors equip teachers with guided PBL scenarios to facilitate a shift in thinking so they feel mentally prepared to adopt a growth mindset and commit to the professional learning community (PLC) process.
This book will help K–12 school leaders, teacher leaders, trainers, and administrators:
- Apply the PBL method to the PLC process through the use of guided PBL scenarios
- Adopt a growth mindset with tips on making each thinking shift
- Utilize the “Think This, Do This” approach to ease the transition to a collaborative PLC
- Build collaboration, will, and skill with numerous tools and strategies
- Honor and trust their team members and the PLC process
