The program's major emphasis is on investigations that are student directed and relevant to students' everyday lives. The program's main focus is on hands-on, inquiry-based science and math lessons. Language arts (vocabulary) and technology are integrated at points where they fit naturally. Science 21 achieves a balance between process and content, and is supported by kits and staff development.
