Galileo is about teaching for deep understanding. Galileo supports teachers to design inquiry-based projects in which students use the digital technologies of their time in creative and thoughtful ways.
Galileo is about improving student learning as measured by standardized achievement and diploma exams and in a variety of other ways. Learning for the 21st century must move students beyond acquiring information that everyone already knows. Galileo helps teachers understand how the new digital technologies are changing what we can, and should, be doing in schools.
Galileo is about collaboration. In all walks of life, people are increasingly working in effective teams to define and solve problems. Galileo creates team environments that break down the traditional isolation of the classroom and permit teachers to become better, together. Galileo helps school systems optimize the use of their own internal resources by bringing in new resources and new ways of thinking about them.
