Problem-based, place-based, project-based -- pick your P to accompany your BL. These days, many teachers are trying to figure out how to adjust their experiential learning plans when our shared experience is that we're all working from home.
Many schools have projects and classes that ask students to engage with the community, but here at Hawken we have whole courses that we call Macros that use challenges from community partners as the primary learning and teaching terrain. We invited two Macro teachers, Janae Peters and Justin Cook, to share how they've modified their course to meet the moment without losing the heart, ambition, or meaning of their students' learning experiences.
