A major aim is to create a community of “Citizen Scientists” to provide strong examples of teaching strategies and tools that have worked well. Citizen Scientists can be a major force in demonstrating the value of not only educating children, but parents learning alongside their children. Other major goals in addition to the upcoming YouTube Docuseries The Art & Science of the Everyday, are to develop an interactive book series for parents, create a suite of educational apps that are geared towards young learners and their parents, as well as the young at heart (lifelong learners).
