Complex Systems Research and Design of Learning Environments

The CRADLE Lab — located at the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education–applies complex systems approaches for teaching in order to design learning environments and curricula for science classrooms and professional development (PD) for science teachers. The CRADLE Lab was founded by Dr. Susan Yoon, and the lab comprises a diverse team of researchers, instructional designers, and K-12 educators. We are regularly designing and implementing new publicly available PD programs, so we encourage you to sign up for our mailing list if you would be interested in participating in future PD programs.
