Explore the instructional strategies and practices needed to transform your classroom into an innovative, engaging STEM environment. Our STEM training will help you support students as they explore through inquiry-based learning and the design process.

OUR STORY

Every idea starts with a problem. Ours was simple: how do you bring meaningful, real-world STEM experiences to the classroom? In 2011, Founder Darren Jones started BrainStorm after recognizing a huge gap in what was being taught in schools and what was needed in our rapidly changing world. After working in Visual Effects for 20 years on films like Star Wars and Lord of the Rings, Darren understood the importance of a strong foundation in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) and the need to introduce these concepts at a young age in parallel with traditional subjects. The mission was to elevate STEM beyond cardboard or crafts and allow students to explore subjects through engaging experiences that incorporate cutting-edge technologies, hands-on science and real-world engineering.

OUR VALUES

OUR MISSION

Provide students with engaging and exciting programs that will provide confidence and create opportunities in this technology-focused era.  BrainStorm’s unique and comprehensive curriculum has been carefully crafted and tested to ensure a thought-provoking and educational experience for all of our students.

Our goal is to provide opportunities for students to explore the different possibilities of STEM, learn a 21st Century skill and potentially discover their passion.  BrainStorm’s students have gone on to receive scholarships for Engineering at Ivy League universities.  And, our younger students in Elementary and Intermediate schools have gone on to win over 30+ awards in the FIRST Robotics Competition, as well as numerous awards in Filmmaking.

Our curriculum has been developed and refined to provide an educational experience that will inspire your students to apply classroom learning to the real world. Our student learning guides and visual instructional aids create an environment where success is assured, allowing students the freedom to explore all of the wonders of STEM with confidence.
