As of June 2010, Mr. Springer has retired from Radnor.
For the 2009 - 2010 school year, the Soundings Program will be undergoing some alterations in preparation for a return in 2010-2011. Key elements of the Soundings program are continuing within the new 8C learning community under the direction of Mr. Springer and Mr. Mercurio.
Welcome to
SOUNDINGS:
An Integrative Alternative for Eighth Graders
|
|
SOUNDINGS challenges eighth graders to explore student-selected themes that merge their adolescent concerns with global issues. Following a process of question formulation and analysis, the class democratically determines themes to study. For each theme selected, the students learn to set goals and objectives, develop and initiate plans to achieve those aims, present their results, and assess their performance. As they experience this process, students encounter essential skills and concepts from all academic disciplines and apply them to real world issues.
