About

Improving Practice Together, funded by the National Science Foundation, improves elementary science instruction by engaging students in argumentation from evidence.

Improving Practice Together was a three-way partnership to study: 1) how the PRACTISE Professional Learning model, developed by the Lawrence Hall at the University of California, Berkeley and Stanford University, could be adapted and implemented in Santa Clara Unified School District to align with district goals and priorities; and 2) the development of district capacity to implement the adapted PL model beyond the life of the project.
