Loyola University Chicago along with our partners at the University of Illinois at Chicago are working with Chicago Public Schools (CPS) on
one of the most ambitious high school projects ever attempted in an urban schools. As part of the High School Transformation project, we
are working with CPS teachers and administrators to develop an integrated sequence of science classes that reinforces the content knowledge
and critical thinking skills high school graduates of the 21st Century will need. Using an inquiry based teaching approach, students will
learn science by engaging in science: formulating questions, conducting experiments and analyzing and evaluating the results of those
experiments. Please read more about this wide ranging project to change the way science is taught in Chicago.
