About

We are excited to invite students from the Whittle School & Studios Founding Classes (Grades 8 – 10) to join the Washington, D.C. Center of Excellence (COE) for the inaugural “Student Think Tank Experience,” a project-based learning summer webinar series.

 

Through this free, web-based program of four weekly sessions students will explore critical international issues through the lens of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

 

Through guided webinar sessions with the Whittle Team on evenings in August, students will explore a topic of their choice through Socratic method activities, independent research, and iterative project development. The project will culminate in a final presentation to teachers, students, and parents and disseminated throughout the Whittle network.  

 

RSVP now to reserve your space!
