Introduction to Project-Based Learning (PBL)
April 29, 2019 | 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM Lighthouse for New Learning (4/F Areté, ADMU)

Yet it is challenging to implement because this means striking a balance between developing these soft skills and achieving the Kto12 curriculum standards. Project-Based Learning (PBL) may provide just the answer! In this seminar-workshop, participants will explore how PBL provides teachers with a valuable entry point to engaging, relevant, and effective instruction that addresses both types of goals.
At the end of the seminar-workshop, the participants will be able to:
- Explain what PBL is and what its benefits are
- Design a model PBL
- Discuss if it is feasible in the Philippine context

Developing Critical and Creative Thinkers, Collaborators, and Communicators
May 14, 2019 | 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM Lighthouse for New Learning (4/F Areté, ADMU)
How well can your students think critically and creatively, collaborate, and communicate (the 4 Cs)? How intentionally have you designed curriculum, instruction, and assessment to develop the 4 Cs? It has already been widely accepted by educators the world over that students need to develop the 4 Cs if they are to be ready to successfully face a complex, largely unknown future. Yet many schools and many educators continue to aim primarily for mastery of knowledge and skills and only incidentally aim to develop the 4 Cs. In this workshop, participants will learn how they can effectively develop these skills by using powerful strategies like Ron Ritchhart et al.’s Visible Thinking Routines and giving them more opportunities to solve complex, real-world problems.
At the end of the seminar-workshop, the participants will be able to:
- Discuss what students proficiently need to know, understand, and be able to do to be successful in an uncertain future;
- Analyze the importance of developing the 4 Cs to prepare students for the future;
- Define each of the 4 Cs and explain the characteristics, mindsets and processes involved when using the 4 Cs;
- Identify various strategies that can be used to develop the 4 Cs and build up their 4 Cs toolkit;
- Recognize the challenges to developing the 4 Cs in today’s students and explore ways that these can be addressed more intentionally in their schools

Teaching Reading and Writing: Methods that Matter in the Language Arts Classroom
May 24-25, 2019 | 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM Lighthouse for New Learning (4/F Areté, ADMU)
Despite the emergence of new literacies, reading and writing remain to be two core literacies important to the foundation of learning. New technologies may have changed the landscape of education, but strengthening reading and and writing skills has proven to be more crucial than ever in ensuring that learners develop communication and critical thinking skills necessary in the 21st century. With this, classroom teachers are invited and challenged to revitalize their reading and writing classrooms to make them more relevant and engaging to their students. In this workshop, teachers will revisit key guiding principles that should undergird the instruction of reading and writing, as well as immerse themselves in effective student-centred teaching methods and pedagogies that will enable them to create a classroom culture that is literately rich, and promote creative and critical thinking and genuine love for reading and writing among their learners. After the course, educators will go home with a tool-kit of handy strategies that are sure to strengthen and enrich their language arts classrooms.
At the end of the seminar-workshop, the participants will be able to:
- To clarify important beliefs and principles that should guide the teaching of reading and writing
- To equip classroom teachers and administrators with research-based skills and strategies that will enable them to make the teaching of reading and writing more relevant and engaging to their students.
