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.
