Students participate in all aspects of the research program, including research meetings, publications and conference presentations, seminars, teacher training, and materials development. We are committed to this type of student involvement in the future. Furthermore, this commitment extends to our collaborators and partners who have already played active roles on student thesis committees, supervised student research activities, and co-authored papers with students.

Research Projects and Theses: Students work with the research team in conducting literature searches, retrieving articles, formulating and refining the design of the studies, contacting potential subjects, constructing the instruments, collecting and analysing data, and writing up the results of research studies.

Conference Presentations and Publications: Students are expected and supported to present their theses at learned conferences and to submit manuscripts for publication. They also co-author papers based on projects they have collaborated on with team investigators and collaborators

Teacher Training: Students actively engage in preparing and presenting workshops and in-service training in the instructional techniques the CSLP is investigating. Students have helped facilitate in-service professional development at schools, CEGEPS and universities throughout Quebec.

Materials and Software Development: There are a host of opportunities for students to put their ideas to effect via the development of specialised software and computer-based training materials. Students have developed general materials for technology integration, in-service training and development, interactive multimedia for early literacy, applied statistics, digital portfolios, and computer-supported collaborative learning activities.
