BernieD says, "Yes... at this point amplified only by more examples."

BernieD says, "The key thing in these lessons, it seems to me, is the
authenticity of the task."

RoddL exclaims, "Keep it Real!"

BernieD says, "All these things are done by people outside of school
walls, and that just by itself makes them a bit more
interesting to kids."

HarrisD says, "The counselor one is nice"

BernieD says, "One thing I put in the definition, too, is the inclusion
of authentic constraints. We never have an unlimited
budget and unlimited time."

BernieD says, "I was surprised to see that very few of these examples
made the constraints explicit. Too bad, I think."

BernieD asks, "Before we go exploring, are there any questions?"

RohanP shakes his head

PhilipAB says, "It's often hard to find websites with specific enough
info to put figures and budgets on things."

HarrisD says, "Looks exciting to have learners explore real life"

PhilipAB says, "I wanted students to include numbers in a mission to
mars project, but we couldn't find enough info online."

BernieD says, "Depends on the topic, I guess. By constraints I usually
mean numbers and limitations that you (designer) put in
yourself, not find on the web.l"

PhilipAB [WebTeach] nods

BernieD says, "Before we start, I'm going to reproject the page. Stand
by.,"
