We see a world where every
child learns by thinking.
Children are natural thinkers. They are curious and ask many questions.
And then they get busy learning definitions and formulae. They are rewarded with marks and grades if they remember the information provided by the teacher or the book.
What a fabulous system of making extraordinary thinkers into ordinary thinkers!
Open Door is saying that enough is enough. And that is why we have designed programs with beautiful questions at its core. Open Door offers two programs - Mastery Assessments and Thinking Classroom - to schools and two programs - Unbox and Thinksheets - to individual parents.
Open Door began in 2013. The founders realized early on that the school system focused on exams and marks but had limitations in providing in-depth mastery of a concept. In other words, children were scoring marks but the learning was pointless because no one was really understanding a concept.
We kept the name of the initiative ‘Open Door’ because we wanted to make children think and question.
Open Door programs are designed by a team of young graduates from some of the finest universities - such as the IITs and NITs - in India. The team is a group of thinkers who live and breathe science and math. When they look around themselves, they do not see a table, a wall or a book. They see science and math.
Over the last 7 years, Open Door team has been working to increase the thinking in many classrooms. The questions designed by the team are currently making 150000+ students think more than before.
Middle school physics concepts set the foundation of science among young kids. Whether a child would do great in science later is mostly determined by the level of understanding of these concepts. Mastery Physics course takes your child on a journey of Physics that creates a genius.
A lot of thinking, no lectures and deep dive into the world around you. Unbox Physics is one of the best apps for learning Physics. Students learn through series of thought provoking experiments and questions on the App.
The app in itself is designed to engage a child. Currently, the completion rate is absolute 100%. Unbox team makes several interventions through assignments and incentives to keep the progress on track.
The course discusses 8 modules i.e Heat, Light, Sound, Motion, Current & Charges, Force, Pressure and Measurements. All the modules are further divided into 47 explorations. These 47 explorations consist of 1200+ interactive questions and experiments. After completing a module the student may appear for an assignment to win goodies.
