The partnership had three founding tenets. We wanted students to achieve deep understanding of science, as reflected in their ability to solve complex and somewhat ambiguous everyday problems. We sought to take advantage of the technological tools that scientists regularly use. And we wanted to create instruction that equitably served males, females, and students from all cultural groups. CLP members came together with mutual respect, diverse ideas about how to meet the needs of a broad range of students, and a willingness to develop a set of beliefs about instruction, learning, and curriculum design.
Newcomers learn from the group.
