A City Site Classroom.

Rush, Perry

Educational Leadership, v57 n3 p63-65 Nov 1999

With corporate sponsorship, a suburban school in New Zealand developed a Wellington City Site program to teach students how to work in context. The classroom houses a richly personalized program that builds strong relationships between students and business and arts organizations. Freedom, ownership, responsibility, and openness are underlying principles. (MLH)
