More than 100 years of learning science, psychology, and workforce development research informs Summit Learning — our personalized approach to teaching and learning inspired by the vision to equip every student to lead a fulfilled life. We translate the science of learning into the intentional design of our schools to achieve student success in four outcomes: Cognitive Skills, Content Knowledge, Habits of Success, and Sense of Purpose.
To visualize the century of research that informs Summit Learning, we’ve created a comprehensive research timeline that includes a diverse range of perspectives and groundbreaking works that have been formative influences on Summit Learning and each of our student outcomes. The timeline is organized by research that influenced each outcome, as well as more overarching influences.
