DAVINCI SCHOLARS
In support of our goal to impact the arts, sciences, humanities, and education in Oklahoma through increased partnerships, programming and public awareness that promote critical thinking and creativity, the DaVinci Institute initiated, in 2003, the DaVinci Scholars program.
Each year we honor a special group of Oklahoma teachers by recognizing them as DaVinci Scholars. These teachers possess a unique set of characteristics. Each has graduated from an Oklahoma college or university. Each has chosen to remain in Oklahoma to build a teaching career and is currently employed as a teacher in an Oklahoma public or private P-12 school. These DaVinci Scholars, with one to three years of teaching experience, practice interdisciplinary instructional methods in the classroom, recognize and support the value of multiple intelligences, individual learning styles, and foster creativity and critical thought in students. A DaVinci Scholar collaborates with peers and parents and understands that learning is not static but rather an ongoing lifelong process.
In support of our Scholars, DaVinci Institute provides opportunities for professional development and personal mentoring by our outstanding DaVinci Fellows who have served as DaVinci Lecturers.
