"Wide Open School is a free and open collection of online learning experiences, and social and community services, for kids and families. It is a place to learn, but also a place to relax, to have fun, and to maintain the human connections among classmates and teachers. Conceptually, it aspires to be Talkspace + Master Class + Zoom + Peleton + Google Classroom + a hushed library + a noisy lunchroom + a playful art class + a buzzing seminar.... because we will need all of these kinds of tools if we hope to support the engagement of kids for several hours a day every day. Wide Open School doesn’t plan to build most things itself - it will be assembling the best from everyone who is raising their hands to help."
Let me know if you have any questions and I'd be happy to answer!
