Activity, Project-Problem Based Learning Approach (APB)
Activities, projects and problems are introduced by posing essential questions and are accompanied by reading fictional or non-fiction text. Students then explore, design and build utilizing the Engineering Design Process.
PLTW’s Activities, Project-, and Problem-Based (APB) learning approach allows students to engage in meaningful collaborative learning.
PLTW’s APB based learning approach scaffolds student learning, building the required skill sets to apply toward an open-ended design problem.
PLTW’s APB learning approach centers on hands-on, real-worldprojects that help students understand how the information and skills they are learning in the classroom may be applied in everyday life.

Activity
ACTIVITIES afford students acquisition of skills and content knowledge.

Projects
PROJECTS are related to the design challenge/problem and provide opportunities for meaning-making.

ProblemPROBLEMS provide opportunities for students
to transfer the new knowledge and skills they gained from previous activities and projects in a real-world setting.

The Design Process
![Page 9: Project Lead The Way Launch Program - RIT Lau… · Project Lead The Way Launch Program. Jeanine Flinton – Galway CSD. Jim Nair – Saratoga Springs CSD. How Launch works: Engineering](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071003/5fbfdb7472ef761c8e748464/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Design Process
ask
explore
model
evaluate
explain
What is the problem? What information do I already know, and what information do I need to know?
Brainstorm solutions; learn new skills; sketch ideas.
Work collaboratively to select the best possible solution and build a model.
How can I conduct a fair test of the model? What are my solution’s strengths and weaknesses?
Explain how your model solves (or doesn’t solve) the problem. How can it be improved.

Explain Strengths, Weaknesses and How to Improve Your Solution
An attempt to solve a problem that has no clear/best solution. There is “no right answer”.
