Our Mission
Enrichment of Pattern Oriented Thinking
Unique Approach
We’ve combined our deep understanding of human cognitive abilities, about experience with with the science of learning, to develops an enduring learning and connect you in a community of like-minded individuals who develop patterns oriented thinking for solving complex problems.
Through real-life practice and application of new concepts, you’ll strengthen your creative problem-solving skills by moving away from what's familiar.
You learn from your failures, see alternatives and stretch from your comfort some to creating new things. We believe that learning comes when you are challenged with experiences. It is okay to fail but not on the same thing
We challenge our learners to find organization in chaos, challenge their assumptions, work their core to rise above the challenges and shape themselves to serve themselves and others. You will learn from esteemed practitioners who apply these methods in their own work as well as at universities include Carnegie Mellon University, Stanford and UC Berkeley.
Our experiences help engage your learners in ladder approach to see, experiment, fail, share and reflect their learning. Our courses cycles you through concepts linking each Computer Science concept to day-to-day life, helping you solve complex problems, resulting in deeper learning and life skills that carry through life in realm of strong EI and EQ.
You are also able to reflect on the experiences as stories of how you grow in your College Applications.
