Episode 52: Mike Kaechele: Combine PBL and SEL for Super-Powered Learning
In this episode, I have a great conversation with wise and wonderful educator, Mike Kaechele, who clearly lays out why Project-Based Learning is such a natural partner for growing Social Emotional Learning skills and how to intentionally combine them together to create a better education for all students. Mike provides lots of practical examples and tools (not just tech tools, either) to design incredible PBL units, with great SEL opportunities. We top off this important discussion with an acronym based The 5-Minute Game Show that is a lot of fun!
I’d like to give a special thank you to Mike Kaechele and to Linda Korn for the wonderful Paradigm Shifters jingle on today’s fauxmercial.
Reminder of what the elements of Gold Standard PBL are.
