Project Examples
Educators are invited to submit simple documentation of project work from their classrooms. Check out our Guidelines for Submitting a Project to IEL for suggestions on how to submit a project example. Once you’ve submitted a project, IEL staff will help edit and publish your project.
By sharing documentation of their experiences implementing the Project Approach, Illinois teachers can help each other learn new strategies and ideas for implementation.
