FROM COMPLEXITY TO CLASSROOM

Media-rich learning experiences that stick

We take complex, mission- driven topics and turn them into classroom-ready lessons students want to engage with. Built by educators, scientists, and media professionals— every lesson is thoughtfully crafted, standards- aligned, and designed to spark curiosity. This isn’t just a worksheet. It’s a full learning experience.

REACH CLASSROOMS ACROSS THE COUNTRY

From your mission to classrooms nationwide

Most nonprofits want to reach young people— but lack the tools to do it effectively. We not only build the lesson, we make sure it gets seen. Through our growing network of teachers and trusted distribution channels, we put your mission in front of students, educators, and families across the country.

INSPIRE LIFELONG ADVOCATES

Young people are key agents of change

Students aren’t just future leaders— they’re influencers in their families and communities today. With powerful lessons we can teach them what matters to be a better global citizen and shape how they care and act for years to come.

What other teachers are saying

  • Students were highly engaged with SciJourneys Lesson 1 and loved participating in the Question Web Challenge. I have noticed an immediate improvement in how students ask, answer, and debate higher level questions as a result of teaching this!

    Winifred Waters, Horizon Science Academy Southwest Chicago, IL

  • I loved the visuals that showed habitat loss and fragmentation within the video...I also loved the various perspectives presented, it felt like the information was presented in a way that allowed students to form their own views.

    Stephanie Rapciak, Greenwich Country Day School, CT

  • Just the overall presentation and quality of it is next level. My students are very engaged and love the lessons. The first data graph analysis allows them to create their own graphs based on their own words that they're searching for, so it really drew them into the intrinsic value of looking for answers.
