| We will keep adding materials here that we think can help those who are planning to implement LiD or who are already underway with the program.We will begin with some basic materials we have developed so far. You can read on-line or download any of the following: | |
| “Some operating principles”. This document offers advice about how to engage students’ imaginations in their topics, and how to keep accommodate support for the students as they get older and change the nature of their interest in their topics. Click here. | |
| “Building the portfolio.” A discussion of the practical steps to help the student build the portfolio, and advice about the form and development of portfolios. Click here | |
| “Objections and Responses.” This is a rather lengthy discussion of the pros and cons of the LiD program. Or at least it is an attempt to waylay a number of concerns about the applicability of the program, and respond to what are the commonest objections people have made or that we can imagine.

| Reports by two teachers after their first year implementing LiD. They took on implementation the program after hearing LiD discussed quite briefly, and before any of the resources that have now been developed were available.
