Bring It Home: As a current educator of adults and a future educator of teenagers, I feel that I have made a journey after reading this book. I allowed my students to be consumers instead of giving them that extra nudge to be producers. I was also reminded that before I can be as effective as I need to be as an educator, I must remain current with the newest technological advances. The section in this book entitled “Expanding Your Circle” was very beneficial to me. In the past, I have not allowed my students to lead. Students are capable of leading when given the opportunity. My future students will be producers. They will have a more hands-on experience within their own educational experience. They will use technology even more to connect and share ideas with others. This book was very beneficial, and I will become a better educator as a result of the knowledge that I gained through reading Reinventing Project-Based Learning.

npreparing students for the future I believe it is important to prepare them to lead. It allows them to take ownership of their work and become more involved. Although I have not been in the classroom, I have observed and read about successful teachers who have incorporated this approach and been able to leverage their lesson delivery while doing so. I believe that you will get good results from implementing the strategies shared in the book.
