LAS Educational Research
LAS Educational Research (LASER) provides an opportunity for LAS faculty members to advance professionally through program development, research, and reflection. LASER also welcomes academics and innovators from around the world to collaborate with LAS faculty members, pushing all of us to continually improve.
Our Scholar Programs
Resident Scholars
Each year, LASER solicits proposals in curriculum, instruction, assessment and other areas. The eight faculty members with successful proposals are supported through the academic year by each other and LASER. Projects are presented internally and, when appropriate, shared with the wider international school community through blogs, articles, and presentations. Since its inception in 2014, over 60 projects by 47 individual teachers (some teachers have completed two or more projects) have contributed to the professionalism of the faculty at LAS.
Visiting Scholars
Since 2014, LASER has hosted over 100 stays by visiting scholars on the LAS campus. Researchers, professors, teachers, entrepreneurs, authors, and artists have come from over 20 countries, staying from a few days to several weeks. Many visiting scholars have returned for additional stays. The LAS community, teachers and students alike, benefit from class visits, special instruction, presentations, and the unique perspectives our visitors bring. LAS faculty often co-write or co-present with visiting scholars, sometimes establishing lifelong professional relationships and friendships
