Looking for an innovative and practical program to run at your school?

Innovation for Schools

Are you a teacher or leader in education looking for an entrepreneurial program to run with your students?

Automisation is all around us. Robots are performing many jobs that humans used to, and this is only increasing over time. But, the good news is: robots cannot be taught to think innovatively… at least not yet. 

This where Hack in a Box comes in. In 2016, Inventium created the schools program with the aim of educating the next generation of entrepreneurs and equipping them with the skills to prepare them for the jobs of the future.

Overview

Hack in a Box has been designed for teachers who are looking for a scientifically proven methodology to develop critical and creative thinking skills in their students. Over six classroom sessions, students work together in small groups to solve a challenge and learn a tonne of new skills they can start using straight away.

These skills will help students prepare for jobs of the future, where the ability to think critically and creatively is a must-have for employers.

How does it work?

  • The program is designed to run in any subject or extra-curricular activity, over six, 60-minute sessions. That said, Hack in a Box is completely flexible – run it over two half-day workshops, or over double periods – it’s up to you!
  • Teachers select one of three real-world challenges, designed by Inventium. Students work together in small groups to solve that challenge.
  • All Hack in a Box content (instructional videos for students, teacher session outlines, handouts etc) is hosted on the platform Teachable.  It’s your one-stop shop for running the program.
  • The first classroom is free, so you can trial the full program.

What will it achieve?

  • Students finish the program with a scientifically proven innovation methodology and a new set of critical and creative thinking tools under their belt.
  • A significant increase in student’s ability to solve real-world problems and think creatively.
  • As a bonus, it’s also a professional development opportunity for teachers. Included in the program is a series of instructional videos for teachers, that delve further into the science of the tools.

What teachers had to say about Hack in a Box

“HIAB provides an easy to use and structured program for educators… The resource provided in this program can be tailored and adjusted for different cohorts.”

“Resources and instructions provided were easy to understand and provided students with a highly interactive program.”

“The Idea Generators and the video spectacular were new tools that I hadn’t used before so these were great tools for the students to work with.”

“It was an amazing experience for my students. I want as many students as possible to experience Hack in a Box!”
