Student Books

Research Labs use project-based learning to stimulate, challenge, and empower students to become experts in their chosen topic within a shared unit of study. The labs are designed with a multi-disciplinary approach that combines reading, writing, and discussion, culminating in a Final Project: a student-authored and ‑illustrated book.

Here is a showcase of some of the final project books created by Research Labs students.
