Learn the Proven Effects of This Creative Approach to Learning

How can educators provide more effective and engaging learning experiences? Invention education is the key. This approach, which guides students to solve real-world problems through hands-on invention, is proven to make a positive impact on many children’s academic outcomes.

This white paper explores the latest research on the effects of participating in invention education.

Highlights include:

• Research conducted by the National Inventors Hall of Fame^® in partnership with the Georgia Institute of Technology to measure how invention education experiences might help students reach their potential.
   
• Study results indicating that students who initially reported at the lower end of the scale showed greater interest and less anxiety in both science and math following their participation in the Hall of Fame’s K-6 Camp Invention^® program.
   
• Details on how their Camp Invention experience led many students to report improved problem-solving and invention skills.
