Plan to visit the Dayton Regional STEM School (DRSS) this fall and dive into the details of Project Based Learning (PBL). This two-day professional development opportunity consists of an extended visit to the Dayton Regional STEM School (DRSS), providing participants with an up-close look at the principles and practices that make DRSS unique. A major focus of the Fall Residency is on PBL. Participants will receive a foundational background about what PBL is (and is not), ways that teachers plan PBL units, and how PBL is enacted and supported in various ways at DRSS. This Residency will also provide some initial support – and practice – for participants to begin planning their own PBL units appropriate to their unique settings. Participants will leave with a good understanding of how DRSS operates, how PBL is a major component of what the School accomplishes, and some ideas about implementing PBL in their own setting. To register, please contact Molly Johnson (molly.johnson@daytonstemschool.org, or 937-256-3777).

Cost: $350 per participant

WSU graduate credit is also available for a reduced rate of $250 for one semester hour
