PKAL 2002 Summer Institute
June 1 - 2, 2002
The aim of the Institute was to give faculty and administrators access to hands-on experience with the work of leading agents of change, persons with documented success in exploring and implementing effective approaches to bringing students to a deeper understanding of the nature and content of science and mathematics.
Participants were to leave the Institute, Cluster I and/or Cluster II, with a clear agenda for action to implement on their home campus during the 2002 - 2003 academic year. This agenda for action was to focus on developing courses and labs for students who are STEM majors and those who are not; it was also deal with identifying critical resources and building the institutional infrastructure necessary for productive reform.
