Community Connected Experiential Learning (CCEL)
Deschool collaborates with schools to bring their Community Connected Experiential Learning (CCEL) projects to life. We engage our talented community of experts and scientists to help schools achieve their goals seamlessly, ensuring meaningful, real-world learning experiences for students.
What is CCEL and how does it help students?
Community Connected Experiential Learning is an inquiry-based approach that allows students to participate in authentic learning experiences, reflect on those experiences, and apply their newfound knowledge and skills in real-world situations. This dynamic cycle of participate – reflect – apply fosters deeper learning, critical thinking, and personal growth.
