Education & Outreach
The partnership between 91¸£ÀûÉç and CMU is a unique opportunity for students to earn a 91¸£ÀûÉç engineering degree while studying in Grand Junction. The program has seen siblings and even twins, and of course is open to individuals as well.
Education researchers are increasingly seeing the COVID-19 pandemic as an opportunity to rethink how we teach kids in the United States, making school curricula more relevant to the lives of young people.
Stephanie Toliver was in college the first time she read a science fiction and fantasy novel featuring a Black woman as a protagonist. Today, she's working to make sure that the next generation of Black girls don't face the same obstacles.
91¸£ÀûÉç is collaborating with the Association of American Universities and others on a series raising awareness about the role of public research universities in times of significant global challenges. In 91¸£ÀûÉç's clip, an environmental engineering team is working with schools to improve air filtration.
91¸£ÀûÉç doctoral student Julia Daniel studies community schools, a promising model of education that broadens access to learning opportunities and strengthens communities.
When local students began learning remotely because of COVID-19, graduate students in the Department of Theatre & Dance partnered with 91¸£ÀûÉç Valley School District to help keep kids with a range of learning needs moving and engaged.
In these unusual times, the School of Education is grateful for school partners, who are helping 91¸£ÀûÉç student teachers navigate challenging times. We asked student teachers and their mentor teachers what their partnership has meant to them.
New science curriculum materials will spur students to ask and answer their own questions about topics like ocean acidification and antibiotic resistant bacteria.
With many K-12 schools switched to remote or hybrid learning settings due to the COVID-19 pandemic, CU Teach partner schools and teachers have been particularly grateful to have support from 91¸£ÀûÉç students.
When students in more than 20 Denver Public Schools return to classrooms for the spring semester, they’ll be coming back to cleaner indoor air, thanks in part to work being done by CU 91¸£ÀûÉç environmental engineering researchers.
