How can schools help students build both academic knowledge AND the critical 21st-century skills (think: critical thinking, collaboration, adaptability) they'll need to thrive? Allow us to introduce you to Quests! Developed by the Charlotte Lab School, Quests are interdisciplinary, challenge-based opportunities for students in grades K-12 to research, collaborate on, and solve challenges right in their own communities. Previous Quests have included: 💎 Trash to Treasures: After learning about sustainability, supply and demand, and recycling, 1st graders created a pop-up to re-home items they no longer wanted. 📖 The Lab Voice: Students explored the world of creative writing and worked in partnership with local authors to write, publish, and sell a literary magazine. Read more about the model and how you can bring the Quests model to your school on the Innovative Models Exchange: https://lnkd.in/gndC2Rjv
