The Power of Project-Based Learning at Edison

We're all about hands-on learning and thinking outside the box at Edison School of Innovation, a tuition-free K-8 school in Glendale, AZ. Our approach to education goes beyond textbooks and lectures – we believe in getting our hands dirty and diving into projects that span multiple subjects.

Our commitment to immersive, experiential education means learning at Edison is an adventure. Students don't just read about concepts in a textbook; they actively engage with them through real-world projects and experiences. Whether designing and building a robot, composing music, or conducting scientific experiments, our students are constantly challenged to think critically, collaborate with their peers, and communicate their ideas effectively.

One of the key strengths of our Project-Based Learning approach is its ability to connect knowledge across different subject areas. For example, a project on renewable energy might involve elements of science, math, and social studies, allowing students to see how concepts from different disciplines intersect and relate to one another. This interdisciplinary approach deepens students' understanding of individual subjects and helps them develop a holistic view of the world.

Moreover, our emphasis on hands-on learning fosters essential skills such as problem-solving, resilience, and adaptability. By tackling real-world challenges, students learn to think creatively and innovatively, developing the confidence to take risks and explore new ideas. These skills are invaluable in today's rapidly changing world, where the ability to adapt and thrive in uncertain situations is more important than ever.

At Edison, we are committed to providing an education that prepares students for life. We believe in empowering students to become lifelong learners who are curious, resilient, and ready to impact the world positively.
