Project AccelerUs

Bring student ideas to life with Project AccelerUs, a free, online, challenge-based learning program for young people in your communities. We invite educators, afterschool staff, and community youth leaders to explore how Project AccelerUs can help young people identify challenges in their communities and develop thoughtful, creative proposals to address them.

Through our six-step innovation process, students, called Solvers, explore problems they care about, research community needs, brainstorm solutions, and pitch their ideas. Along the way, they practice critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and problem-solving while discovering the value of their own perspectives.

Educators and youth leaders serve as Facilitators, guiding students through the program using online resources. A typical challenge cycle takes approximately six weeks, with flexibility to fit classroom instruction, enrichment activities, afterschool clubs, and summer programs.
