 * bhallowes || 11:08:31 || @HeidiHutchison @krivett1 Have either of you used PBL much with your classes? #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:09:27 || @bhallowes @krivett1 Yes! I did the #Malala Project on #globalclassroom wiki. Loved doing it! Just went to #PBLWorld in Napa! ||
 * krivett1 || 11:09:54 || @bhallowes @HeidiHutchison #globalclassroom we use inquiry learning and authentic learning problems in all of our integrated learning models ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:11:00 || Doing something called #plsm13 Baltimore October 5th! An unconference on PBL of sorts. #globalclassroom http://t.co/nnOP6CfuoC ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:12:02 || For me the 8 Essentials BIE uses are what makes PBL-the DQ and st.s Need to Know list #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:12:57 || @HeidiHutchison A swap meet sounds a bit like a TeachMeet. Such a great way for teachers to grow. #globalclassroom Gives one confidence. ||

 * HeidiHutchison || 11:14:43 || @bhallowes Yes or an Edcamp but just for PBL! Thanks to @BiancaH80 and @waginski in Sydney right now maybe at the pb chat?! #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:15:09 || I have used PBL after training with ThinkQuest, Intel and Microsoft Peer Coaching. Would love to have integrated classroom. #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:16:16 || How do we conduct a global PBL? Does everyone have to do it exactly the same? Same DQ at least?#globalclassroom #pblchat #plsm13 ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:17:05 || I have idea for global PBL using The One and Only Ivan! DQ: Do we have the right to capture and cage animals. #globalclassroom #pblchat ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:17:45 || @bhallowes What defines PBL for you? #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:18:43 || @HeidiHutchison #globalclassroom Yes, real world problem. I love the #TravellingRhinos project. Deals with poaching. #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:19:43 || @HeidiHutchison #globalclassroom For me PBL is real world problem solving using 21st century skills like critical thinking and collab. ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:20:11 || @bhallowes Awesome project! That will go on for a long time! Still going on now! Yes, real world, authentic audience! #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:21:01 || Do you think an online global PBL can happen? #globalclassroom Is it possible? Need same driving question? ||
 * bhallowes || 11:21:34 || @HeidiHutchison I teach 7 - 9 year olds. They learned so much about rhino project and presented to the whole school. #globalclassroom ||
 * krivett1 || 11:22:47 || #globalclassroom we were part of travelling rhinos project and it was awesome! Class loved being part of something purposeful in the world ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:22:52 || @bhallowes Really you presented to the world! I took part in the Global Webinar and many teachers learned about that! #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:23:12 || @HeidiHutchison #globalclassroom There are so many tools for online PBL. Skype is great but there are also blogs and wikis, voicethread.... ||
 * krivett1 || 11:23:20 || RT @PTPIPaige: Global Education Conference for Students: Providing a Vision for the Future http://t.co/ypputtKeWk #globalclassroom #globale… ||
 * krivett1 || 11:23:29 || RT @MrsMorgansClass: Start the Year with a Project . . . or Wait? @Edutopia http://t.co/YQDKzLJ8Xt #pblchat #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:24:25 || Q: What are key features of global PBL? Teacher's and students role? #globalclassroom #pblchat ||
 * bhallowes || 11:24:41 || @HeidiHutchison It seems there are so many global problems. We are in the right age for global online PBL learning. #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:25:49 || Yes! I think there probably always have been. Teacher's role is to be guide, provide scaffold...#globalclassroom ||
 * Oddizzi || 11:26:40 || @krivett1 What was the travelling rhinos project? Sounds interesting #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:27:13 || @HeidiHutchison #globalclassroom Teacher is facilitator, uses standards, scaffolds and poses questions or gets kids to ask questions. ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:27:46 || @Oddizzi @krivett1 http://t.co/7s0B3OIE7u #globalclassroom ||
 * krivett1 || 11:28:10 || RT @HeidiHutchison: @Oddizzi @krivett1 http://t.co/7s0B3OIE7u #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:28:51 || @Oddizzi Hi welcome to the chat. So glad you can join us. What is your understanding of PBL? #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:29:36 || @bhallowes Teacher poses question thru engagement activity which could last more than a day. Sometimes kids need more help.#globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:31:32 || @HeidiHutchison Engagement is key. Our winning ThinkQuest project started visit to game park. Can I be a good tour guide? #globalclassroom ||
 * Oddizzi || 11:32:23 || @bhallowes PBL also enables students to gain a deeper understanding of a subject #globalclassroom ||
 * Oddizzi || 11:32:52 || @bhallowes Thanks. Many of the schools we speak to are involved in PBL. We think it makes schools more like real life. #globalclassroom ||
 * krivett1 || 11:33:37 || @Oddizzi @bhallowes #globalclassroom and to choose their own learning pathways based in their own q's and curiosities ||
 * bhallowes || 11:34:39 || #globalclassroom Our kids have also participated in Flat Friends proj. Not strictly PBL but builds relationship for future. #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:34:51 || @Oddizzi @bhallowes Yes-so important for kids to try on different hats taking role of architect, biologist, doc, etc. #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:35:57 || @krivett1 @Oddizzi @bhallowes I really agree that st.s creating their own questions is KEY! Comes from within, from them. #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:36:48 || @HeidiHutchison #globalclassroom I love it when kids realise that there's no such thing as a stupid question. ||
 * Oddizzi || 11:36:59 || @HeidiHutchison @bhallowes Agree - they learn so much more that way and can choose their own direction which is so powerful #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:37:51 || @Oddizzi @bhallowes Tough for teachers to let go of control sometimes. Goes against our own experience of school. lol #globalclassroom ||
 * Oddizzi || 11:38:00 || @HeidiHutchison @krivett1 @bhallowes It also demonstrates to the teacher what they are truly interested in, a good insight #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:38:29 || @HeidiHutchison Agree. We love to ask the questions - usually closed. :-) #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:38:39 || @Oddizzi @krivett1 @bhallowes This is where great assessment can come from. St.s need to help with assessment. #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:39:27 || @HeidiHutchison absolutely agree. Get them to help draw up rubrics. They love it. #globalclassroom ||
 * Oddizzi || 11:39:51 || @HeidiHutchison @bhallowes Agree - but a creative teacher should be able to control the flow and encourage their thoughts #globalclassroom ||
 * Oddizzi || 11:41:06 || @HeidiHutchison @krivett1 @bhallowes Absolutely - surely this assessment is one of the most valuable #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:41:15 || @Oddizzi @bhallowes Talk more about "control the flow" #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:41:23 || #globalclassroom Q4 Can you share any more examples of projects you've participated in? ||
 * bhallowes || 11:43:22 || @Oddizzi I'd be interested to know if you mean the flow of questions or the flow of student thinking. #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:43:52 || @bhallowes http://t.co/VXCRMTJtzE Check out the other classroom pages! So fun! So meaningful! #globalclassroom ||
 * Oddizzi || 11:44:26 || @bhallowes Flow of the questions! I wouldn't want to control the students thinking #globalclassroom ||
 * HeidiHutchison || 11:45:21 || @Oddizzi @bhallowes Yes, sorting through questions and gentle direction of where to go! Yes. :) #globalclassroom ||
 * bhallowes || 11:46:06 || @HeidiHutchison I remember this now. Great project and a real world one indeed. #globalclassroom ||
 * newtechnetwork || 11:46:30 || Sorry to miss #globalclassroom chat w/ PBL! We have talked global a few times w/ #PBLChat here is one archive http://t.co/HEE26S1YFG ||

 * bhallowes || 11:47:31 || #globalclassroom Another great topic for PBL is bullying. Can I be safe? Global and local problem. Lots of scope. ||

 * Oddizzi || 11:48:42 || @bhallowes We also think that a good topic for PBL is the Global Marketplace #globalclassroom ||
 * krivett1 || 11:48:52 || RT @newtechnetwork: We also talked making global connections in this chat, great resources here http://t.co/bfmwRzmgLc #globalclassroom ||
