Project Based Learning
Introduce Defined Learning at Your School
Let Defined Learning help you create an engaging, project based learning environment for your students that empowers them to build the knowledge and skills necessary to thrive in college, careers, and life. Adding Defined Learning to your district or school will give you access to our curriculum, rubrics, assessments, professional development, and ongoing program support.
School Curriculum Integration
Our mission is to empower students to develop the critical knowledge and skills they need to succeed in an evolving world. Our online solution is designed to provide school districts with the tools they need to implement and assess engaging
real-world project based lessons that connect classroom content with career pathways.
We achieve this by providing teachers with interdisciplinary project based lessons built around careers that provide opportunities for students to apply their knowledge and deepen their understanding. Defined Learning will customize and align our performance tasks to your units of study across all grades.
Here’s what getting started with Defined Learning looks like:
- Discussion of your goals—each district has unique goals specific to the challenges they face. Tailoring Defined Learning to meet these goals is necessary for a successful implementation.
- Free trial period—we will provide you with temporary access to evaluate and dive deeper into all that we have to offer teachers and students.
- Sample alignment—we will provide a sample alignment to your district curriculum to show you how Defined Learning can meet your district’s needs.
STEM/PBL Elective or Science Rotation
Defined Learning’s project based learning units enhance core curriculum by providing opportunities for students to learn about STEM careers in context and connect the skills they are using in the classroom to the real work happening around the world. Defined Learning helps students apply what they have learned on a deeper level and develop skills that will make them successful in college and beyond. Each performance task provides the student with a unique and creative opportunity to transfer their knowledge into a real-life scenario utilizing “hands-on” projects.
