Community of Practice

J-WEL’s PK-12 Action Group hosts a monthly lunch for researchers, designers, and outreach programs to collaborate and stay up-t0-date on all things PK-12 at MIT. Directors, program managers, and coordinators of DLC and student-run education outreach groups are encouraged to attend, learn, and share.

“The Action Group fills a growing need in STEM education by initiating new research, technologies, curricula, and outreach activities. This means designing targeted solutions that ranges from low-cost laboratory instruments to innovative computing environments, and advancing our understanding of teaching and learning through a diverse set of research methodologies, from basic cognitive science and neuroscience to design-based research and classroom experiments.”
