Another thing that is going on is that while we have 2 groups presenting the observers are filling out post it notes. They are stating what the like and then what can be better. Great comments. Very informative.
After the presentations, the students are to blog about their feelings on the project. They are to talk about what they like about it, what they didn't like, what they learned and maybe one question they still have. This is great feedback for me to use for my notes on how to make it better for next year.
For those that think it was a waste of time.... I'm so sorry. We will work on not wasting your time in class any more. That seems to be difficult in PBL. Those that are "wasting time". Something to definitely look at for the next one....
