Curriculum units, written by participating Fellows, stand as the most tangible result of CTI seminars. The curriculum unit serves as a vehicle for developing and adapting what a Fellow learns in the seminar so that it may be applied to the classroom. All seminars include time for each Fellow to discuss his or her curriculum unit progress so all seminar participants may work collaboratively to ready units for publication. Once units are complete, they are posted here to be shared with other CMS teachers, school districts, and educators around the world.
