[quote=Anonymous]They evolve the curriculum into "units of inquiry" so that means the teachers still teach the same curriculum but might organize it slightly differently. There is an emphasis on asking questions and encouraging students to see themselves and their situation in relation to the rest of the world. There are a lot of community service elements worked into the curriculum. It involves some extensive training opportunities for teachers. Also, students at an upper level (i.e. 5th grade) complete pretty extensive "portfolio projects" on a specific topic. [/quote]
