Our Values  &  Our  Mission

We believe that learning should be creative, driven by curiosity, and full of joy. 

We believe that young people have beautiful ideas, and that education should value and nurture them.
​
We believe that science, technology, the humanities, and the social sciences are all important ways of understanding the universe around us, and that approaches from these fields should inform each other.

​We create and study new learning experiences and technologies to realize these values.
