Authenticity: Nailing Down the Impossible

Session 4
Caitlin Thompson, Zachary Herrmann, Sarah Kavanagh — Inquiry Schools, University of Pennsylvania - Graduate School of Education

We have studied and practiced Project-Based Learning and Teaching and come to the conclusion that authenticity is one of the key components of great PBL (alongside rigorous subject area learning, feedback & revision, and student agency). However, we are grappling with how we define authenticity and coach teachers to improve this area of their teaching and learning. How do we get beyond the "I'll know it when I see it" idea and transform educational opportunities for students by increasing authenticity in learning opportunities? Join us in wrestling with these ideas and brainstorming solutions to this quandary.
