Abstract	This article consists of the second part of an interview with John Sole and David Schrader on the Redesign of the High Schools in Philadelphia: Integrating Project Project-Based Learning and the Architectural Process January 2006. The first segment examined the work of educator John Sole. He emphasizes an active, self-directed project-based, collaborative approach where cooperative learning strategies are favored over traditional, lecture-oriented, discipline-focused, teacher-centered instruction. John explains that collaborative, Project-Based Learning is a pedagogy that prepares students for the real world through an active process that teaches critical thinking, problem solving, teamwork, negotiation skills, consensus building, technology, and responsibility for one's own learning. In this second in a series on Getting REAL, John Sole discusses an unprecedented project that links education and architecture in a unique way by directly influencing the redesign of high schools in the School District of Philadelphia. John Sole has teamed up with educational architect David Schrader in the redesign of two urban schools with the intent of changing the way schools are planned and designed. Participation in design, whether adult or child, has often been one of manipulation and tokenism. Post-occupancy evaluations and assessments rarely involve children and young adults. Fortunately, two adults, John Sole and David Schrader, have the courage to open up the design process--to make it REAL for students--those who are most affected by the designed environment. This interview article explores a current project that connects student learning with school design in a unique way. (ERIC).
