Overview
Skill Development You must develop management skills that enable you to successfully plan and execute a project, as well as facilitation skills that help you work successfully with students as they move through a process of discovery and reflection. The trick is to become comfortable with the open-ended nature of the inquiry process, while still structuring and guiding a project to a successful conclusion. Most often, these skills develop through experience.
