FACILITATION SERVICE

Our teachers are doing amazing job at getting through a vast amount of required curriculum content in classes. Lucent Learning exists to help teachers enhance this delivery in ways that don't add extra work for teachers. Opportunities are designed with the teacher to bring in industry guests to the classroom with the purpose of showcasing how they apply in their day to day what the students are currently learning about. Lucent Learning sits in-between the teacher and the industry guests and facilitates the opportunity on behalf of each, taking care of all the administration and project management.

There are immediate benefits for teachers and students alike. Some examples, just to name a few are:

Class engagement with new content/guests, sparked interest in further study of subject matter, understanding relevance of content to daily life, seeing the career application of the topic area.
