Project Based Learning (PBL) in Rural Schools

Connecting CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ engineering students with rural K-12 students in Colorado

PBL in Rural Schools trains cohorts of CU students on instructional techniques and air and soil quality technology, then sends them out to rural classrooms across Colorado to work with middle and high school students on air and soil quality experiments. The CU students and K-12 school teachers commit to participating for a full year, with CU students traveling to schools four times. The program currently reaches over 600 middle and high school students each year and is always looking for new partner schools.
