It was awesome to see kids doing some things they wouldn’t normally be doing like marketing and research… It was fantastic to see them step out of their element into a real life situation, and just see them be so successful. You could see their confidence and what they think they could do go to astounding levels. It was really amazing.”

It’s interesting to see that [because of this course] we might have students who end up becoming legitimate inventors. Through the process of the innovation course, I saw one student actually change as a person. He was someone who was very quiet, very timid… He has grown in leaps and bounds. Not only in his confidence and perseverance, but also in the skills that kids need to have for employability. Seeing him organize himself and manage himself through the project was really impressive. I was so impressed with the way it changed him as a learner.”

I think we actually had a lot of kids who really discovered that they enjoyed learning more than they realized. We had a couple of students that I think I would not say that they were normally academically inclined, who were excited coming to class everyday. And they were really pumped about actually getting to create something.”
