In this episode, Josh (@askgiebs) and Andrea (@MissB103) have a conversation with Jaime Johnson of Indiana Afterschool Network (@INafterschool), Aimee Scott (@aimeemscott) of the John Boner Neighboorhood Center (@JBNCenters), and Ryan Steuer (@ryansteuer) Director of Magnify Learning to discuss afterschool programs and the role that PBL can play. They dive in by talking about the Indiana Afterschool Network and the work being done there. Then they discuss PBL in afterschool programs and some of the benefits that can come with the integration of the two. Then they talk about the benefits of a relationship between in-school and afterschool programs, and tips on how to make that happen. Finally they outline some next steps for afterschool directors or leaders, or in-school teachers or administrators who are thinking about incorporating an after school program. Executive Director Ryan Steuer touches on how Magnify Learning plans to offer support in those ways. Check out the links on our website for more information on the conversation today.
