Project Based Learning for Teachers: See the Amazing Video Explaining the US Consititution by a Teacher Unleashed

Cool Cat Teacher Blog where remarkable teachers learning about teaching

Came across this from this tweet for #itec10 – the amazing Iowa Technology conference I attended earlier this week.

RT @JeffDicks: Follow @baseballburk The new #newellfonda 1st yr tchr who does this while at #itec10 http://youtu.be/1B497xoNNs8″  

 When we do project based training for teachers – we can unleash greatness. This is what can happen! See the video below that this history teacher, Ryan Burkhart, left for his students as he attended ITEC!  Wow, Ryan! You rock!

Project based learning doesn’t just belong in the classroom with students but in teacher classrooms for the simple reason that teachers learn to create artifacts that are a legacy and can be used by others in powerful ways.

I’m forwarding this video to our teacher that covers the US constitution and formation of the United States.

Vicki Davis

Vicki Davis has been an educator and IT director in Georgia since 2002. Today, she also works as an instructional technology coach, staying side-by-side with active teachers and students so her work stays grounded in real classrooms.

She's a mom of three, wife of one, and loves talking about the wise, transformational use of technology for teaching and doing good in the world.

She has blogged at the Cool Cat Teacher Blog since 2005 and hosts the 10 Minute Teacher Podcast and Cool Cat Teacher Talk (radio, public access TV, YouTube, and all major podcast platforms), interviewing remarkable educators around the world. Vicki focuses on what unites us — a quest for truly remarkable, life-changing teaching and learning. The goal of her work is to provide actionable, encouraging, relevant ideas for teachers, grounded in truth and shared with love.

If you talk to Vicki for long, she'll encourage you to "Relate to Educate," to "innovate like a turtle," or to be "a remarkable teacher." She loves homemade sourdough bread and cinnamon rolls and runs half marathons with her sisters. You can usually find her laughing with her students or digging into a book.

Thank you for reading, sharing, and telling your friends about the work we do here! - Vicki
