CSI: Camp Science Investigators at Hampshire College

A summer science enrichment program offered either as a day or residential program for students entering grades 7, 8, 9 & 10.

Sunday, July 11, 2010 through Friday, July 16, 2010.

CSI: Camp Science Investigators (CSI) brings teachers, college students and adolescent campers together for an opportunity to teach and learn science concepts aligned with Massachusetts Science and Math Frameworks. Teacher-coaches and college faculty mentor teachers as they use innovative teaching strategies and curriculum materials to teach complex ideas. College students assist teachers in classes that

  • encourage learners to work in teams to solve problems
  • teach science concepts and theories while working on fun, student-centered projects
  • help students gain new knowledge by completing investigations or design projects
  • promote a sense of accomplishment and self-direction

Teachers, college students and campers all reflect on the impact of their actions, share ideas with others in their group, and have fun together.
