Basic Science and Technology

We don’t only teach our students the theory of Science and Technology at Sanctum Startup College. Research shows that doing activities and receiving feedback is more effective than listening to a lecture – as much as 3x more effective! This is according to research conducted by Eric Mazur at Harvard; Nobel Prize winner Carl Wieman at Stanford; and Kelly Hogan at UNC Chapel Hill. Unlike most other schools where students work alone, at Sanctum Startup College, students share each other’s passion for what they’re learning and are eager to give and receive feedback. Doing projects will give your child unique opportunities to try something new, with the added bonus of getting to meet others they can learn from and teach. The knowledge they gain in their practical class will last for many years to come because it’s rooted in a positive social experience. There’s no learning by cramming or memorization here. Instead, it’s just a perfect circle of trying, failing, collaborating and growing.
