Our Story
The hole in the wall experiment
We were inspired by Sugata Mitra’s “Hole in the Wall” experiment in India, which showed that children can teach themselves—and each other—when given access to technology and freedom to explore, challenging traditional ideas about structured learning.
Innovation Stations
We created what we would like to be thought of as the “Hole in the wall experiment 2.0” is our Innovation Stations. We use the power of AI to give students access to Discovery-Learning to both students who do not have access to education, and as an alternative to those that do.
Innovation Stations are low cost, can be set up nearly anywhere. Learners lead the conversation while our Madam Bella asks them to explain their thoughts, and ideas.
Learning from stories
People don’t learn best from lectures and tests-we learn from stories. This idea was pioneered by Dr. Roger C. Schank, who developed Story-Centered Learning, an apprenticeship-style approach that places learners inside realistic, decision-driven scenarios. Backed by decades of research and real-world implementation-from training programs at IBM and the U.S. Army to MBA curricula in Europe-Story-Centered Learning has proven to be a powerful alternative to traditional education.
