The Kuyers Institute will focus on teaching and learning from pre-kindergarten through college, and will foster research and professional development.

The Kuyers Institute will act as a catalyst to gather interested professionals for workshops, conferences, and research seminars, and will coordinate research projects in a variety of settings.

Our Audience
The Institute will involve a wide variety of participants and address several audiences:

• Practitioners in Pre-K through 16 education, teachers who are seeking to develop more effective practice and deeper reflection on that practice.

• Students, whose improved learning is central to this effort. Stakeholders in local schools and colleges will also be influenced through this work as we articulate best practices, disseminate research findings, and advance theoretical reflection.

• Finally, we hope to speak to and collaborate with the larger community of educators, both in higher education and elementary and secondary settings, in North America and internationally, as we articulate and study the unique contributions of faith to the educational process.
