We are scientists creating science curricula.
Teachers and parents want science curricula that unlock the true potential of their young learners and prepare them for STEM careers. To accomplish this, we developed an instructional method that acknowledges the incredible power of the young mind to learn complex concepts, and we overhauled the standard science curriculum, creating a completely fresh learning sequence that incorporates the knowledge and skills that are actually important for real scientists.
In short, we created our dream science curriculum, the curriculum that we wish we had in school.
Our learning materials include animated presentations consisting of hundreds of custom visualizations carefully designed so that every student can learn.
Handheld model building activities accompany every lesson, giving students a tactile and visual perspective on chemistry that few students experience. We also use computerized molecular modeling to immerse students in the intricate and three-dimensional world of macromolecular structure.
These tools, used to explore the inner world of the cell—DNAs, RNAs, proteins, cell membranes—are virtually unknown outside of academic biomedical research, but our curriculum allows elementary students to master them.
Our curriculum is not a gifted enrichment activity—it is a reimagination of what science learning could be for everyone. After working first hand with over one thousand diverse K-12 students, and seeing what unexpected and amazing things they are capable of, we believe our methods can change the world of education.
