I enjoyed offering this book as a gifted book study for teachers. They got a lot out of it. We also watched some webinars and videos by Todd Stanley in which he shared valuable ideas and resources. Of course, this book needs to be followed up by a lot more learning before PBL can be effectively implemented, but it's an excellent start.
