Dear WeLearn Community:
Dear WeLearn Community:
We have just completed the second week of the PBL Trial Program for the month of August. Our Learners have demonstrated their great passion in solving a real threat to protecting our environment. You will find an overview of the PBL this week and their solutions in the article below.
Our Innovation Department is also launching the Minecraft Education Edition as an additional learning tool for PBL next term. Be sure to check out the recent study from Queensland University on how Minecraft Education Edition impacts learning in the classroom.
Self-Directed Learning is one of the core future skills our Student Success Department is focusing. You will find below how our learners are assessed in developing this skill.
Penpal School PBL: The Science of COVID-19 and How to Stay Safe

Feel free to join the orientation on Monday, 16th of August, right after the Morning Kickstarter!
