Joined 2024


Partners

  • Teaching Systems Lab at MIT

  • Young People Project

  • Center for Professional Education of Teachers

What are we building?

  • Teacher Moments, a digital simulation platform where teachers can practice, rehearse and reflect on critical classroom decisions

  • AI-powered tools that support coaching and teacher decision-making based on experiences from simulations and classrooms

  • Co-designed digital simulations with the Young Peoples Project to help teachers practice, and reflect on ambitious and Equitable decisions in mathematics classrooms for diverse learners

What are we learning?

  • How low-cost, low-stakes, low-time digital clinical simulations—especially those co-designed with students—can be used by mathematics coaches to enhance teacher learning

  • How co design digital clinical simulations with students

  • How simulations can be used effectively in coaching cycles to improve engagement and instructional practice in math classrooms

Products

  • Teacher Moments digital simulation platform

  • Inclusive math-focused clinical simulations

  • AI tools supporting teacher learning in coaching and reflection
