After completing their studies, when our children enter adult life, they?ll be judged not by their performance on basic skills tests but rather, by the quality of their work and the quality of their character. This premise serves as the foundation for EL Education?s overarching vision of increasing student engagement and elevating student achievement.
EL Education, born out of a collaboration between The Harvard Graduate School of Education and Outward Bound USA, is a network of over 150 very high performing schools in USA, where project-based-learning expeditions are the pedagogical mainstay. Through these expeditions students engage in interdisciplinary, in-depth study of compelling topics with assessments coming through high quality products, public presentations, and portfolios.
