Project-Based Learning Unit BuilderStart the project with a question worth investigating.
Set the subject, grade, real-world theme, and approximate unit length to draft a project-based learning outline. Review its driving question, milestones, assessment criteria, and suggested resources, then adapt the plan to your standards, calendar, and students.
Enter subject, grade, a real-world theme or problem, and approximate number of weeks.
02
Generate the outline
Request a unit and review its driving question, milestones, rubric criteria, and resources.
03
Adapt before launch
Revise the question and timing for your class, then expand a milestone into a lesson plan if useful.
“A CLASSROOM MOMENT
WHAT THIS COULD LOOK LIKE
Plan a local water-quality investigation
Enter the grade, subject, and a local water-quality problem with the number of weeks available. Review whether the driving question invites evidence gathering, adjust milestones to fit the calendar, and refine the assessment criteria before introducing the project.
GOOD TO KNOW
Questions, answered.
A little more detail before you dive in.
Is the generated unit ready to launch unchanged?
No. Review feasibility, standards fit, timing, and the driving question, then adapt the outline to your class.
Can students help shape the driving question?
Yes. The guide recommends treating the draft as a hypothesis and refining it with students on day one.
