Project Based Learning PBL
To learn about the specific PBL curriculum that MCA will be using this year please investigate the following site, Buck Institute of Education, BIE. http://www.bie.org/index.php/site/PBL/pbl_handbook/
This website is extensive (please investigate the comprehensive menu) and designed to give teachers and parents a close look at the process their students will use. This PBL program is designed especially for middle and high school students. The great benefit to teachers is the fact that it allow students of different learning styles and academic ability to work successfully side by side.
MCA will be adding a Biblical Worldview component to this proven program. We will be following this handbook very closely. You will find much information that will help you support your child this year. You may be asked to mentor a student in your area of expertise. This manual will be your guide. More on Orientation night.
