"I've always felt I would have been a very different teacher without my
LLT experience- I probably would have recreated my own educational
experience in the classroom rather than reconsidering that very teacher centered model."

~Alex MacPhail

Phase 2: Design Week

The team-building process begun during the wilderness experience is extended as participants work in two and three person interdisciplinary teaching teams.

In this phase, participants first learn and practice a planning model by designing community-based/activity-centered curricula that they will try out in the next phase. Program staff function as team advisers, assisting participants with curriculum development and with the challenging process of team teaching.
