The High/Scope Difference:
Active Participatory Learning
Children and adults learn best through hands-on experiences with people,
materials, events, and ideas. That principle — validated by decades of
research — is the basis of High/Scope's approach to teaching and learning.
High/Scope's Curriculum includes components for:
-
Infant-toddler care and education
-
Preschool education
-
Early literacy
-
Movement and music
-
Elementary education
-
Youth programs
Each individual program consists
of a complete system of
teaching practices,
defined
curriculum
content areas
for each topic and age group,
assessment tools,
and a training
model.
The practices and content are flexible by design, easily adapted to individual
needs and institutional requirements.
Proven,
research-based strategies for learning:
The High/Scope Curriculum
emphasizes adult-child
interaction, a
carefully designed
learning environment,
and a
plan-do-review process
that strengthens initiative and self-reliance in children and young people.
Teachers and students are active partners in shaping the educational experience.
