Rocket PBL Student Research Packet for Gifted & Talented - IIM Process
- PDF
Description
Made with the gifted students in mind! This Project Based Learning (PBL) packet uses STEM-based learning to captivate students with a problem-statement for students to develop an original solution to solve. It also follows along with the IIM (Independent Investigation Method/Model) research methodology. This is perfect for younger gifted students who have never done IIM before and need a more structured way to complete the process, or perfect for older gifted students in the general education setting that need an independent investigation to complete as an alternative assignment or early-finisher work.
