Connecting students to bright futures.
What if every class you took in high school helped you to explore and achieve your dreams? What if you were connected to experts who gave you real-world feedback on your work along the way?
Educurious™ gives students the connections to start creating a successful future right now—in high school.
Solving real world problems.
What if students could start exploring careers and professions while they are still in high school? What if the scientist who is pioneering the next generation of artificial limbs asked your Biology class to help analyze a crucial design approach? What if an award-winning mystery writer dropped into your English class via Skype to talk about what it takes to write a thrilling crime novel?
Educurious connects what students learn in school to real life. Students do meaningful, interesting work where there isn’t always an easy answer or just one solution. They learn how to collaborate, share responsibility and learn from the work of their peers. As they join forces to solve real problems, they “learn how to learn” anytime, anywhere, in any subject they choose. They acquire the lifelong skills, knowledge and habits to pursue their dreams.

Educurious courses are built on technologies that are part of young people’s daily lives, including online social networks, digital video, gaming, texting, blogging and cell phones. By using their favorite, familiar tools in their learning experiences, students are able move farther and faster in their schoolwork.
