NuVu is a full-time innovation school for middle and high school students. NuVu’s pedagogy is based on the architectural Studio model and geared around multi-disciplinary, collaborative projects. We teach students how to navigate the messiness of the creative process, from inception to completion.
So, what makes us different?
No Courses: Instead, we have studios. Around 12 kids work closely with their 2 coaches on solving big (and small) open-ended problems. Students spend around 3 weeks focused on one studio prompt at a time. Students are evaluated on their progress towards competency or mastery in their personal and professional growth, as well as through individual student portfolios.
No Subjects: Instead, everything is fused together. Students find themselves moving between a studio that requires them to design a telepresence robot to another that requires them to re-imagine Boston with a cable car system. Classes take place in an open space that changes all the time to adapt to the needs of every studio.
