Have teachers implemented a PBL unit but have not seen immediate results? Are you wondering if it's worth continuing? You're not alone. In fact, this is one of the most common reasons schools abandon their PBL initiatives - but here's why that's a costly mistake.

This episode reveals a crucial insight: building an effective PBL initiative takes time, typically spanning three years for full implementation. The impact of project-based learning directly correlates with the fidelity of implementation, but many schools cut their journey short before seeing real results.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why expecting immediate gains on standardized tests sets your PBL initiative up for failure
• The three key areas you should actually be measuring to track PBL success
• A practical 12-week cycle approach to implementing and measuring progress
• How successful schools maintain momentum during the crucial initial months
• The often-overlooked stakeholder feedback that indicates your program is working

Don't let impatience derail your PBL journey. Learn how to measure what really matters when building a sustainable project-based learning culture in your school.
