This example of a learning expedition reflects the Detroit Achievement Academy\u2019s principles, in emphasizing social interaction as integral to the learning process. They emphasize that knowing students\u2060\u2014\u2060individually, culturally, and developmentally\u2014is as important as the curriculum. Rather than rote memorization, their approach emphasizes, \u201cHow the adults at school work together to accomplish their shared mission is as important as individual competencies; lasting change begins with the adult community.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
