“This was the best Institute or conferenceI have ever attended!

Terry Yamamoto-Edwards, Science TeacherPunahou School, Honolulu, Hawaii

questions and delve deep into the answers. It felt like coming home.”Paula Cohen, Middle School TeacherLos Angeles Unified School District

“CWI gave me the opportunity to go deep in my understanding of service-learning and the way it can

transform education.This Institute has given me a framework with which to return to my community with concrete ideas on how to implement service-learning.”

Elizabeth Ferguson, TeacherThe Lawrenceville School, New Jersey

abouT our LoCaTIon CWI’s Summer WEST takes place on the campus of The Otis College of Art and Design, a national leader in art and design education, situated on a bluff on the western edge of the city of Los Angeles and adjacent to the Pacific Ocean.
