The Core Challenge: A Triad of Pressures
The feedback consistently highlights a central tension: balancing the demanding, exam-oriented nature of AP courses with the desire for deep, exploratory, and engaging student learning.

This is the most dominant challenge. Teachers feel constrained by the need to cover a vast, content-heavy syllabus in a limited time.
“how to cover all the content within the limited time”
2. Test vs. Competency
A core anxiety is how to foster real-world skills and deep understanding without compromising preparation for the high-stakes AP exams.
“balance between AP test and real-life topic exploration”
3. Assessment & Grading
A frequently mentioned pain point is the difficulty of creating fair, effective, and manageable assessment methods for PBL projects.
“The evaluation of the project is difficult.”
