About us
Mindsets’ Summer Open Challenges are real real-world problems, aligned to state math standards. 100% online and mobile friendly, designed by teachers for teachers & families to nurture curiosity and students’ voice in learning.

Mindsets Challenges answer the question — “Why do I need to learn this? When will I ever use this?”. Students love learning through the world around them, expressing their ideas and collaborating with each other.

Early studies in California show Mindsets’ has helped teachers to boost students’ skills in communicating and reasoning mathematically by 10x when compared with earlier results on the state Math Performance Task test (the CAASPP).
