How One Teacher Turned a Hatred of School Into Dedication to Project-Based Learning

It's quickly gaining popularity because the state's new, more rigorous academic standards known as Common Core require students to hone their critical thinking skills and problem solve in groups. We meet one teacher who -- partly due to his own struggles in high school -- believes project-based learning is the best way to engage students at all levels.
