3. School of One Pilot Project
The NYU-POLY team decided to take up the challenge of
designing games for the School of One project.
They advocate for individualized learning with computers and
daily ‘playlists’ of topics to review. Teachers evaluation is
computer interactive and determined in part by the progress
each child is making with their ‘playlist’ topics.
Teachers are responsible for a defined set of skills on the
learning progression, rather than all of them.
Class sizes can range from 3-24
