Watching the video (and then reading the transcript) really made me think which of these eight key competences I possess.
I've just started PBL in my classroom and so far it's great! Students want more, they ask questions, and if before their parents were just the people they were trying to please, now they have to talk to their parents, gather information from them, sort it, draw conclusions etc. They love it, I love it and I really think it's going to give great results. Of course, there are students that still resist by not finishing their activities, but this is just the start. I believe that the majority that enjoy it will pull the resistant ones along and by the end of the PBL we'll all be satisfied. About the assessing I've used rubrics for assessment for about 8 years. It allows me to keep my students in check, but also to keep myself in check. I remember when I first started using rubrics, parents often asked why their child had lower grade than they expected. After getting introduced to and familiar with rubrics for different tasks, there were no more objections. They preferred my rubrics to vague reasons from some of my colleagues everytime.
