What is Genius Hour?

Welcome back! 

What exactly is Genius Hour?

Genius hour is a time that allows students to discover their own passions and motivates creativity in the classroom environment. Genius hour doesn't necessarily mean that students only get one hour to complete the activity. It can range from 30 minutes of class activities to months of hard passion-based projects. Imagine working on and creating something you absolutely love? Students in this case, will be more determined and take more initiative to complete their final task. They communicate and connect with teachers and even peers to plan and produce and community members to form a sense of purpose for their work. The main goal of Genius hour is student-centered, providing students with freedom to design their own learning.
