[2.6] What role does reflection play in the PBL process?

Recently I’ve heard from many of you who listen to the podcast, attend my workshops, or communicate with me on LinkedIn that you're finishing up a project-based learning unit.  I've been checking in with past and current members of the Impactful PBL Network to hear updates.  I love listening to what's working, what's not, and what you're learning.  It can be easy to wrap up a project-based learning unit and immediately move on without closure.  When this happens, it can lead to a feeling that PBL was just "a thing we did that once."But if we want to build a robust project-based learning culture in classrooms, we must do some practices consistently. Reflection is a critical practice to implement. I often hear teachers skip the reflection process due to timing, but trust me, making time for reflection is essential.  In this episode, we will explore the role reflection plays in the project-based learning process.
