If you're a teacher looking to deepen your projects, Modern PBL provides the perfect starter guide. Very comprehensive, and very usable. Good work, Dan!"" --- -Thom Markham, Ph.D., Rx for the Planet from Dr. Thom ""If I were to succinctly summarize Dan Jones' new book, I would offer this simple equation: (passion + purpose) x project = love of learning. Dan enthusiastically shares his considerable experience as a classroom teacher with a first-person curation of the promise and practice of project-based learning. Modern PBL: Project-based Learning in the Digital Age will ignite novice and veteran teachers alike...and thereby ignite their students' learning."" -Chris Gareis, Ed.D., Professor of Educational Leadership at William & Mary School of Education ""This does not read like your typical how-to book, and that is what sets it apart from many education books on the market today. Dan has not only provided step-by-step details of how to implement project-based learning in our classrooms, but he has included countless case studies and anecdotes to help us visualize exactly how and what we need to do to meet with success. After reading Dan's book, I feel confident I can introduce my students to project-based learning tomorrow-and most importantly, they'd love it!"" -Jon Harper, Elementary Intervention Specialist at Maple Elementary in Easton, Maryland"
