“I am a beginning teacher and I found that the Future Anything Challenge really encapsulated a teaching style that I want to apply to other classes as well. The project-based-learning style that culminates in the showcase/pitch day held a lot of meaning for the students, and had clear application of skills that students need beyond the classroom.”
