- Develop learning opportunities to integrate learning within classrooms, and learning in informal settings such as museums and other informal learning sites.
- Develop tools to implement and sustain educational programs outside the traditional classroom.
- Develop skills and knowledge to understand and address the increasing complexities of issues facing informal learning settings.
- Evaluate the potential for working with a variety of learning communities.
