CORE BELIEFS

THE BRAIN HAS A LEARNING PROCESS THAT HAS EXISTED AS LONG AS MANKIND
  • Education must be guided by the biological process of hands on instruction

  • The learning process should challenge children with traditional instruction and resist overdependence on current or emerging technological tools

Children Using Laptops
CLASSROOMS MUST BE HUMAN CENTERED
  • Student success is rooted in an explicit focus on the teacher as the driving force behind direct instruction and classroom relationships

  • Edtech cannot elevate bad teaching or substitute for poor instruction

EFFORT AND REAL EXPOSURE ARE ESSENTIAL TO LEARNING
  • Critical thinking cannot be cultivated without consistent exposure to foundational knowledge 

  • Productive challenges build student independence and confidence

Girl Reading Book
SCHOOLS SHOULD TEACH COMPUTER SKILLS, BUT NOT ALL SKILLS THROUGH COMPUTERS
  • Balanced classroom instructional pedagogy will allow traditional skills to translate eventually into digital skills

  • Essential career based technology skills are unique and not ubiquitous

TESTIMONIALS

"Observing my 5th grader struggle to recall lessons due to a lack of note-taking and heavy screen reliance, I worry that essential content and critical skills are being lost." 

Brandi Bazemore, parent and teacher
