100 Days of Learning in Place: How a Small School Utilized Place-Based Learning to Master State Academic Standards by James Lewicki

This report describes the development and implementation of a place-based curriculum involving over 100 days of learning in local places such as historical archives, a restored wetland, a river valley, and a senior citizen community center.  The high school students -- who reflected a wide range of skills, abilities, and backgrounds -- worked together, as in a one-room schoolhouse. The Iowa Test of Educational Development (ITED) was taken as a pre-test in September and  a post-test in June. In each core section of the ITED there was significant improvement -- from 100% to 250%.  A table presents pre- and post-test scores in eight subject areas.  How place-based learning increases test scores is discussed. Hard copy is out of print. Digital Copy available.
