How big are the “classrooms?
Small classrooms and personal attention is an important part of our teaching philosophy; class size is capped at 20. Students work collaboratively in groups of 5 to 7 participants. Each course module is team taught by two instructors: (a) a scientist well versed in the science domain of the given module who guides participants in their acquisition of key science content, skills, and values, and (b) a science educator who supports participants as they consider pedagogical strategies for bringing science inquiry into their classrooms.
