Otterbein Education Department receives "Out of the Gate" grant from the Buck Institute of Education

Otterbein's Department of Education was one of four universities in the nation to receive close to $200,000 to participate in a national grant project to support training in Project Based Learning. (PBL) The grant will provide professional development to Otterbein Education faculty, teacher partners from five different central Ohio school districts, and up to 300 Otterbein education majors.  The Department is thrilled for this opportunity for Otterbein education students to implement  Project-Based Learning, a method of teaching which examines real-world problems with 21st century skills, in their developing teaching practice.
