Project Invent builds high school programs where students design technologies to help real people. In our programs, students have designed everything from a smart wallet to help the blind detect bill denominations to a steering wheel attachment to prevent drowsy driving.

Take your teaching to the next level of inclusion with Culturally-Sustaining Pedagogy, an approach that promotes equity for all learners, regardless of their backgrounds.
