CONNECT links nationally recognized researchers with teachers and administrators at the UCLA Lab School to address key educational issues. By hosting research projects from diverse fields including anthropology, psychology, and education, CONNECT supports a variety of studies on teaching, learning, and development. We value programmatic research projects relevant to educational issues and encourage partnerships and collaborations between researchers and teachers. Projects hosted by CONNECT often lay the foundation for larger studies that benefit a broader range of children, leveraging the Lab School's diverse student population.
