Project-based learning is the future of education, and we want to celebrate the educators who are leading the way. Submit your curriculum, lesson plans, or projects for a chance to win prizes totaling over $40,000!
We invite educators from the United States to showcase their innovative and engaging approach to education. We are looking for exceptional project-based learning activities that challenge students to develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills.
Participating educators will have the chance to showcase their work, connect with like-minded educators, and win exciting prizes. We are eager to see the creative and innovative projects that educators submit and to recognize their achievements. Whether you are a seasoned educator or a first-time teacher, we encourage you to submit your project-based learning activities and join us in celebrating the power of project-based learning in education!
