Update 2004-More specific information about the research and solid curriculum connections (developed over the last three years 3-20-04) is is available at http://lovinlearning.org/heroes .  If video production is your interest try http://lovinlearning.org/videoproduction . Our search for providing easy to incorporate technology using community resources continues at http://geolit.org .  Our later works have been featured at http://glef.org, Intel, and Apple.  We are seeking solutions for teachers and communities.  How can we "leave no child behind'?  It is our firm belief confirmed by increased testing scores that only by incorporating multiple strategies, multiple intelligences, learning by design..., we can hope to meet this goal.  What started at this site was "how can we react with what we have at hand."  This most basic reaction became the foundation for later works.
