The Franklin Institute's Center for Innovation in Science Learning develops model programs for the K-12 science education community, both inside and outside the Museum walls. This chapter profiles the Institute's Partnership for Achieving Careers in Technology and Science (PACTS), a leadership program for African-American middle and high school students, the majority of whom attend Philadelphia public schools. Key features of PACTS include inquiry-based workshops and research activities in environmental science and robotics, leadership development, college and career counseling, and participation in community service.
