The PBL project was not my favorite for this class. I do not like group projects, as I much prefer working alone. Some of my group members had trouble getting on Googledocs and completing tasks. I did not like Googledocs. It is not something I would use ever again. A PBL project is not realistic for teachers. Number one, teachers don't have time to plan for such an elaborate project. Number two, we have such constraints in teaching to the test (CRCT), plus all the pre/post tests we have to give that I don't see it being feasible have a PBL project. Number three, I don't think most teachers have had any training or even have a clue as to what a PBL project is. Do I think PBL projects are effective? Yes. Do I think my group did create a final project to be proud of? Yes. Will I ever use it? Probably not. I am glad that I learned about PBL projects and how to create one, but it was a challenging activity.
