Effective collaboration has always been a hallmark of CRDG’s work. CRDG excels at building alliances that further high quality education for all children. Its partners include schools, collegial research entities, community and education organizations, and government agencies. Curriculum research, data collection and evaluation, professional development for K–12 teachers, and dissemination of materials provide fertile ground for strengthening relationships.

In 2007, CRDG’s working partners in Hawai‘i included more than one hundred public, private, and charter schools as well as community and educational organizations. CRDG worked with teachers in mathematics, science, art, social studies, early childhood education, and reading and worked on research and evaluation projects with the Hawai‘i Departments of Education and Health. Curricula and professional development impacted more than two hundred teachers and thirty-five hundred students in grades K–12. Colleagues from the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo as well as the UH Mānoa’s Colleges of Education, Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources, Natural Sciences, and Engineering were actively involved in research and development with CRDG. Beyond Hawai‘i, CRDG’s collaborations extended nationally and internationally to California, Mississippi, Illinois, China, Ethiopia, Russia, and beyond.
