It is a thrill to be able to communicate the curriculum topics of ecosystems, biodiversity and evolution through this course. This will not only support what they study at school, but also inform them as global citizens of the future.

Itza at EdTechX Summit 2022
Next month, Itza will be attending the annual EdTechX Summit, back for the first time since Covid, at London’s Tobacco Docks. We’re thrilled to be joining the world’s leading thinkers, teachers and technologists at the cutting edge of digital learning. Join us over the coming editions as we share exclusive insights from the event and our takes on what’s new and next.
Reinforcement learning: Not Just for AI
At Itza, we know all about the power of ‘reinforcement learning’ - but it’s just as powerful for humans as it is for machines. We help our learners develop deep knowledge through a scaffolded learning approach, which uses continuous positive reinforcement (through prizes and accreditation, like our Agent of Change badge, and our currency Yakka) to help them build confidence and take risks. We think it’s a winning formula that prepares students today for the world of work tomorrow. We loved McKinsey’s use of ‘reinforcement learning’ to train the AI that’s transforming everything from how they hire to how they design.
