The Project Approach involves children in investigating aspects of their own environments worth learning more about. In the Engaging Children s Minds summer institute, educators develop a thorough understanding of the Project Approach and how to apply it in the classroom. Participants apply the techniques by working in teams on projects which include all the processes and procedures used by children engaged in project work. The program includes lectures, audiovisual presentations, group discussions, practical field work, and classroom activities. Registration Information Advance registration for the institute is required by July 20, 1999.
Participants pay for their own travel and incidental expenses.
