Project-Based Learning
Project-based learning is the core of CLC's curriculum. CLC teachers design "real world" projects that integrate a variety of knowledge and skills. A CLC project could integrate aspects of science, social studies, and math - as well as rely on technology, writing, and problem solving skills. This is a distinct departure from fragmented "subject areas". Also, CLC projects are "real world" projects. This means that the projects are not contrived, but simulate real world situations. As a result of these "real world" projects, students perform because of an intrinsic desire to do so, not to avoid punishment or to gain awards.
