Project Based Learning and AP Government
This clip shows how an AP Government class changed their curriculum to model project Based Learning (PBL). They did so with the help of the University of Washington and some high school teachers in nearby Bellevue, Washington. They used scores from the PBL class and compared them with scores from the traditionally taught classes. The idea was to give students a more in-depth look at government than a traditional AP class can give. You can read and see more about PBL at this Edutopia site.

Trevor Packer of the College Board was at their AP Conf session and says the curric should be ready in a bout a year.
Any update on when this curriculum might be available? I'm VERY interested in diving in!
I am also eager to pilot this at my school, looking forward to more information about its release!
Has this curriculum been released yet?
