**Standard 5** ** Teachers know how to manage a classroom. **  The teacher uses an understanding of individual and group motivation and behavior to create a learning environment that encourages positive social interaction, active engagement in learning, and self-motivation.


 * Evidence 1:** EDT 674 PBL




 * Rationale 1:** I created a PBL for my Advanced English 9 classes. Prior to starting the PBL, my students will read the book //Speak// by Laurie Halse Anderson, which deals with the subject of acquaintance rape and the consequences thereafter. In the PBL, my students, as a group, will research date rape statistics and produce a multimedia presentation for their classmates and the community as a whole. Each individual in the group has a clearly defined role, and as they need to cooperate and communicate with each other, they share responsibility equally in the success of the ultimate outcome.
