Course Description
What are YOU passionate about? What do YOU want to learn, create, or solve?
​
In Genius Hour, you’re in charge of your learning. Each week, you’ll get dedicated time to explore a topic of your choice—anything from building a robot, writing a book, designing a video game, researching animal behavior, creating a business plan, solving a problem in your community, the skies the limit.
​
You’ll ask big questions, have “idea storms” with the class, do independent research, create something original, and share your discoveries with the class in a final showcase second semester. Along the way, you’ll learn valuable skills like critical thinking, project planning, creative problem-solving, and how to turn your curiosity into action.
​
There are only three rules:
-
Your project must be driven by a question you’re genuinely curious about.
-
You must create something related to the topic of your choice and present what you have learned.
-
You must come to class with an attitude of fun, curiosity, and know that there are no bad ideas, just ideas to be discovered.
​
