Balancing Real-World Problems with Real-World Results.
Gordon, Rick
Phi Delta Kappan, v79 n5 p390-93 Jan 1998
Real-world problems often do not mesh well with mandated curricula and texts. Designing challenges to develop the understandings, skills, and beliefs necessary for tackling real-life problems involves a commitment to authentic learning experiences of increasing sophistication. The experiential learning cycle, by combining academic, scenario, and real-life challenges, provides a blueprint for connecting the vision of real-world learning to the realization of authentic student results.
