www.voki.com - create speaking avatars - can be used by teacher to introduce an activity or by students for projects. I used the voki website for both. I used it twice to introduce an activity and I've used it for students to practice writing by creating Spanish speaking vokis. MERLOT is an amazing website for content specific searches for lessons, units and ideas. You can find some PBL lessons but you have to search through the results to find them. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/ index.htm Interesting site about Project Based Learning vs Problem Based Learning with examples for Math. http://pages.uoregon.edu/ moursund/Math/pbl.htm Very detailed PDF booklet about PBL with detailed description and steps to implementing PBL along with information regarding class atmosphere with PBL. http://schools.nyc.gov/ documents/teachandlearn/ project_basedFinal.pdf INTEL website for creating PBL units. (David Reep professional development offered last year) http://www97.intel.com/en/ ProjectDesign/Design/ within the INTEL site you can find ideas for PBL http://educate.intel.com/ odyssey/index.aspx?i=1
