We’ve all had the experience of truly purposeful, authentic learning and know how valuable it is. Educators are taking the best of what we know about learning, student support, effective instruction, and interpersonal skill-building to completely reimagine schools so that students experience that kind of purposeful learning all day, every day.
This 6-12 charter school in Minneapolis MN is designed to educate the next generation of innovative entrepreneurs and inventors who can use knowledge to pull apart, reassemble, and redesign ideas. Like inventors, they are expected to be driven, self-motivated directors of their own learning, using assessment feedback to develop their individual learning plans. They rotate through stations to learn academic content and test their own inventiveness.
