Genius Hour is an inquiry-based learning project in which students work on individual projects focused on their passion. This project stems from the companies Google and 3M. These companies give their employees 20% of their time to work on a passion-driven or non-work-related project. Genius Hour brings the mindset of Google and 3M into the classroom. The students receive classroom time where they can create, explore, learn, build, invent, modify, write, or follow any passion that they have in life.
