Each project is a product and a process: It demonstrates understanding of a skill and illustrates knowledge of a concept. Projects reflect the diversity of our learning community. Facilitators will guide student-centered projects while students dictate a project’s deliverables according to their interests and capabilities. This approach to learning prepares our students for the best colleges and careers beyond.

Content Specialists plan collaboratively to create standards-aligned, interdisciplinary projects and other academic assignments. From these plans come high-quality, academically rigorous project documents and artifacts that demonstrate the AACT student’s ability to work on the collegiate level in the 21st Century.
