Lucas Education Research
Lucas Education Research has been funding the University of Washington to develop a new project-based curriculum for AP Physics I. As part of the refinement process of this curriculum, a networked improvement community (NIC) was created composed of the curriculum developers, a group of teachers piloting the curriculum, and education researchers. Horizon Research, Inc. is serving as an outside reflector for the NIC work, identifying key findings from the work and considering implications for: (1) revisions to the curriculum, (2) educative supports for the curriculum, and (3) going to scale with the initiative.
