For middle & high school students

Support for the project
you want to build.

Mentoring, teammates, and $200–$1,000 grants are at the heart of our planned support. Bring an early idea or a project you’ve started, on your own or with a team.

Programs are in preparation. Public applications are not open.

The support we’re building

Choose the support you need.

Explore what each type of support could help with and what to include in a request. Your idea and decisions remain yours.

Guidance on a specific challenge.

Bring the questions you haven’t solved yet. A mentor could help you think through research, planning, or technical choices while the decisions stay yours.

Support depends on project review and available resources. Public applications are not open.

From a question to a first experiment

What could a peer-learning project look like?

An illustrative example: a student wants to make it easier for younger learners to ask for help. The student leads each decision; support helps them test and improve the idea.

  1. Listen before you plan

    Ask a few younger students which topic they find difficult. Choose one question a short session could help them explore.

    Practice: listening and defining a useful goal.

  2. Try one learning session

    Draft a simple activity. Ask an educator to review it, and find a teammate who could help explain or facilitate.

    Possible support: mentor feedback, a teammate, and a materials budget.

  3. Use feedback to improve

    Ask what felt clear and where learners needed more help. Revise the activity before planning another session.

    Practice: reflection, collaboration, and making decisions.
