Problem Based Learning in Math

This amazing middle school teacher took Problem Based Learning (PBL) to a new level.  She decided to teach pretty tough functions in math combining technology and PBL.  Her lesson in square roots was brought down to an understandable, real-world level that made the students really think. She and so many other teachers today find that students are stumped if answers to questions are not Google-able.  She realizes that students need some hand-holding and practice as they take "found" information and "think it" into meaning.
