Technology and PBL
This snapshot highlights the relationship between technology use and PBL use. Teachers who used PBL "almost all" of the time used more than four technology features on average, while teachers who used PBL "almost none" of the time used only one feature.
A journal article that is currently under review goes to great lengths to show that this relationship is not just a function of schools that emphasize technology and PBL. We see this pattern in large comprehensive high schools and in small high schools that are and are not affiliated with a reform model, and across different subjects.
