Vision of Teaching and Learning
Every year, every student has at least one experience that --
- is inquiry-based;
- involves original research;
- involves fieldwork and collaboration with experts;
- requires them to synthesize learning from multiple disciplines;
- is in service to the (global/local) community; and
- is deeply connected to standards.
