Note: This session will be livestreamed.

Challenge-Based Learning (CBL) is an educational approach where students engage with complex, real-world problems that lack predetermined solutions. There are pockets of challenge labs existing within Georgetown; however, how can we create the infrastructure to ensure that every Georgetown student will have at least one, significant challenge-based learning experience before they graduate? This conversation includes Amanda Lu (Policy Innovation Lab), Mark Fisher (Government), Tad Howard (Applied AI to Wicked Problems); and Noah Martin, Francine van den Brandeler, Mark Rupp (Earth Commons Impact Hub) who will feature their own thinking on how challenge labs foster capacities needed in the world today.

This panel discussion is an extension of the Future of Experiential Learning Series hosted by The Red House.
