Ben Owens discusses how Tri-County Early College switched to a project-based learning model for the high school years in conjunction with classes at the collocated community college.
This podcast discusses the importance of innovators and inventors in public schools, the potential of an engineering background in preparing individuals for the classroom, and the implementation of project-based learning in public schools, particularly focusing on the experience of Ben Owens, a high school teacher in the public school system at Tri-County Early College in western North Carolina. The podcast emphasizes project-based learning as an effective and transformative model for education, applicable to both teachers and parents, and encourages participation in a summer program to experience project-based learning firsthand.
