Start with your success
1. Reflect on and write a short description of a meaningful learning experience in your life. Note what it is about the practice that makes it so successful.
2. In groups of 3, the first person shares their meaningful learning experience and why it is so successful.
3. The group of 3 discusses how this practice is different from what is typically considered a good learning experience.
4. Each of the other three members of the group shares their meaningful learning experiences and why it is so successful.

Best Practices• All students have access and the
support/resources they need for proper implementation
• Student constructs meaning and produces knowledge
• Student uses disciplined inquiry to construct meaning
• Student needs and interests are key• There is a vetted community partner/adult• Learning team for each student• Assessment strategies and grading criteria are
defined up front• There is a qualified facilitator overseeing the
process

The Six A’s of Designing Successful Projects
Authenticity• Projects use a real world context (e.g.,
community and workplace problems) and address issues that matter to the students
Academic Rigor• Projects address key learning standards
identified by the school or district and helps students develop habits of mind and work associated with academic and professional disciplines.

Applied Learning• Projects engage students in solving
semi-structured problems calling for competencies expected in high-performance work organizations (e.g., teamwork, problem-solving, communication, etc.)
