"The following online classes are developed and facilitated by BIE, and focus on project design, management and assessment. After taking these classes, you will be able to improve your own PBL practice and share your knowledge with others. Additional classes will be added throughout the year. Follow @PBLUniversity on Twitter to get updates on upcoming classes.
"Please note that classes will only take place if the minimum enrollment is reached. Spread the word about a class you’d like to take place by telling a friend to enroll!"
Jim Lerman's insight: Buck Institute is one of the best places to go to for resources on Project-Based Learning. These courses are sure to be excellent.

The Buck Institute for Education (BIE) is a go to site for learning about Problem-Based Learning, and they are offering four free one-week courses during February and March. The courses are:
* How to Create a Driving Question
* How to Manage Student Presentations
* How to Assess Critical Thinking
* How to Include Content and Competencies
You may register for the first two courses now. Registration for the other two will open on Feb. 4, 2015.
Additional information is available on the courses at the website (click through to the course).
There is a maximum enrollment of 300 so if you are interested in checking these out it would be good to go to the website sooner rather than later.
Great resource! Thx Beth Dichter
