PBTIL Abstract - The purpose of this three year project is to create a new setting for learning and to further develop innovative and effective curriculum models, instructional strategies, and assessment components that will ultimately improve instruction for LEP students.

These models, aligned with The Massachusetts Department of Education's Curriculum Frameworks and Goals 2000 and proven to be successful, will be integrated into both the curriculum and inservice staff development programs of participating schools as well as courses offered by The University of Massachusetts Lowell's Graduate School of Education.
