Problem-Based Learning Units 

A problem-based learning unit, or a PBL, is a unit of instruction designed to guide students in applying their knowledge and skills towards solving a real-world problem or issue.  In addition to delivering course content, PBL units can promote critical thinking skills, problem solving abilities, interpersonal communication, and collaboration.  The goal of our PBL units is to educate and drive high school students across Colorado and beyond to think critically on global issues related to agriculture, food, and natural resources, so that they may join the conversation on the search for potential solutions.
