Our story begins a few decades ago with Joe Renzulli, PhD., and Sally Reis, PhD., education researchers who pioneered influential new models to describe student learning. Their research centered on how personalization and differentiation—constructed around a student’s interests, learning styles, and expression styles—inspire learning.

The Renzulli Learning System is the culmination of these years of research, and if you are a fan of student-centered, personalized, project-centered and uplifting pedagogy, read on to see how we use the Renzulli model to make learning truly personal.

We believe that an engaged student is more likely to invest in learning and that building a curriculum around student strengths empowers teachers to make a difference in the lives of their students. The Renzulli Learning System allows students to apply, deepen, and extend their learning so that, in the words of Joe Renzulli, there is “no child left bored.”
