Disclaimer: educationandbehavior.com<\/a> has no affiliation with the TCI K-12 Publishing Company<\/a>. As the author of this article, I am passionate about hands-on learning and multi-sensory approaches, two major components of TCI curriculums. Therefore, I wanted to share TCI with educators who may be interested in incorporating a hands-on\/active learning approach to their social studies and science classes.
Teachers’ Curriculum Institute (TCI)<\/a> is a K-12 publishing company that creates interactive\/hands-on science and social studies curriculums. The interactive programs enable educators to improve their ability to engage students in a diverse classroom (e.g., students with different learning styles, communication differences, or language differences). TCI utilizes research-based teaching strategies and practices (e.g., multi-sensory approach<\/a>, cooperative learning<\/a>, visual aids<\/a>)\u00a0that bring education to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
