Help Us Revolutionize Science Education

We need your support to transform science learning through the CURIOUS Educator Framework. Developed by Dr. Vanessa Rosa and a team of educators in Cuvette Collective, this research-backed approach taps into students' natural curiosity. Lessons are structured around real-world phenomena that spark questions and drive inquiry.

Our Goal: Raise $50,000

Your donation will help us:

Create interactive learning materials ($20,000)
Provide educator training ($15,000)
Conduct ongoing research ($10,000)
Develop and share resources through The Cuvette journal ($5,000)

The Framework

The CURIOUS Framework engages students through:

Hands-on exploration of observable scientific phenomena
Guiding learners to ask meaningful questions
Problem-based case studies and open-ended projects
Explicitly connecting concepts back to anchoring phenomena
Applying knowledge to explain new observations
Collaborative synthesis and communication of findings

Why It Matters

This approach has been shown to:

Increase student engagement and motivation
Develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills
Promote deeper conceptual understanding
Provide equitable access to quality science education
Prepare students for real-world application of knowledge

But we need your help to spread this framework to schools nationwide.

Join Us

Please consider joining our teaching cooperative, Cuvette Empowered, or making a tax-deductible donation to support this effort. You'll be contributing to the future of STEM education and inspiring budding scientists. Let's work together to tap into curiosity!
