2. Create an authentic problem, challenge, or inquiry appropriate to the students.
3. Write one driving question that is open-ended, student-friendly, curriculum-aligned, sustainable over time, and answerable through investigation and creation.
4. Design an engaging entry event using supplied resources.
5. Create a notice-wonder-question routine.
6. Design a Need to Know process separating what we know, what we think, what we need to learn, and how we might find out.
7. Suggest 5 to 8 possible student inquiry questions without turning them into a fixed checklist.
8. Define an authentic final product, performance, solution, or presentation and an audience beyond the teacher where feasible.
9. Create major project milestones.
10. Include early formative checks to identify misunderstanding before students progress too far.
11. Suggest team roles or collaboration routines where group work is appropriate.
12. Include student voice and choice without losing the learning objectives.
13. Identify likely project-management and equity barriers.
14. Suggest access supports that do not lower the core learning expectation.
15. Do not invent community partnerships, permissions, budgets, technology, or resources.
16. Flag ideas requiring school approval, safeguarding review, or external coordination.
