Become Inspired

Do a search for any topic to find content that inspires your project based learning plan. You can search by keyword, or by a phrase.  You will get a list that labels project ideas as either “Final Project”   or “Project Inspiration.”  Here are the descriptions of each:

Final Project

Videos that describe a final product, like “How to build a rocket”, or “How to Create a Suspension Bridge”.  Your project-based learning plan will be developed backwards from the final project.

Project Inspiration

Videos that inspre you about a particular subject, like “Mars Exploration”, or ” Understanding the Color Wheel”, Your project based Learning Plan will be developed based on the Video topic.

Now, take a moment to think of some idea or concept that you want to use as inspiration for a project based learning plan.  Remember, you can use just keywords (examples: Oceans, Trees, plants, space)   or you can use phrases (examples: martian exploration, human anatomy, life cycle of butterfly, etc.)
