Posted By: C. Ezekiel Ohan On: 11/20/2009 8:48:38 AM As an educator at a school which utilizes a tri-mester system, I have the problem of substantiating this method with educators outside of my core content area [social studies]. I refer to the dept. of math that has specific skill based content: I.e. The specific skill learned in math may not be exclusively practiced using the project based learning mehod. Would there be math teachers willing to respond to this with good examples of utility for PBL?
