Genius Hour

Incorporating Passion, Play, Purpose, & Creativity

If you haven’t heard of Genius Hour, or 20% time in the classroom, the premise is simple: Give your students 20% of their class time (or an hour each week) to learn what they want.

Genius Hour is all about empowering students. In the program, students have:

Freedom to explore their own interests.
Opportunity to indulge in previously unexplored creativity.
Ability to unlock achievement that’s been stifled by “traditional” learning practices.

This online education course, featuring the same amazing content as Strobel Education’s dynamic live workshop, invites teachers from all grade levels to learn about this innovative concept based on a popular Google practice.
