I didn’t find this to be a useful introduction to the idea of PBL, as there were sparse on-screen visuals (mostly just reading off the screen and verbally suggesting an example) and several terms that were referenced without explanation (“single point rubric,” “degrees of content,” etc.). Additionally, for being included in a suite of learning tagged for gifted students, the only acknowledgement of how gifted learners’ needs might be addressed was the usual ‘just tell them to do more during the same project everyone else is doing.’
