We don't lecture kids at JAM. Research shows that doing activities and receiving feedback is more effective than listening to a lecture – as much as 3x more effective according to research by Eric Mazur at Harvard, Nobel Prize winner Carl Wieman at Stanford, and Kelly Hogan at UNC Chapel Hill. Unlike most other online learning services where students work alone, at JAM kids share each other's passion for what they're learning and are eager to give and receive feedback. Doing quests will give your kid new opportunities to try something new and meet others to learn from and teach, too. The knowledge they gain on JAM will last for many years because it's rooted in a positive social experience. There’s no learning by cramming or memorization here, instead just a perfect circle of trying, failing, collaborating and growing.
