Most students never question what's "normal"....

[izzit.org @izzit_org]

Then they discover how differently people live around the world...

Students are surrounded by headlines all day long.

The real challenge is getting them to question what they’re hearing and explain what they actually believe.

That’s where current events discussions change everything.

Over the past year, students at Marlboro High School, Haas Hall Academy, & Cherry Creek Innovation Campus had the opportunity to sit down with Steve Forbes & ask their own questions.

Three schools. Hundreds of students. Conversations they won't soon forget.

Some teacher is going to read this and instantly think of one student 🎓

Some students leave school convinced they were average.

[izzit.org @izzit_org]

Not because they lacked ability— but because their strengths were harder to measure.

[izzit.org @izzit_org]

Now what?

That’s the gap problem solving closes: learning how to adjust, test, and keep moving when the answer isn’t already there.

izzit Core Values — Episode 2: Problem Solving

A student follows every step.
Then the problem changes.

Students can name countries they know nothing about.
That’s the gap cultural exposure closes.

Because memorizing a map isn’t the same as understanding how people live, what they value, or how geography shapes life ✈️

Most people know Memorial Day means freedom.

Few stop to think about what freedom cost.

Not in theory.
Not in a textbook.
Real people. Real sacrifice.

That’s why Memorial Day matters 🇺🇸

By the end of the school year, students can tell when a lesson is just filling time

That’s why Pups of Liberty works so well 🇺🇸🐾

Short virtue videos, Declaration debates & character-driven history that don’t feel like another lesson

Students will argue about fictional characters harder than historical figures.

That’s the trick.

Students lower their guard for the story—then accidentally start debating freedom, leadership, fairness, and power 🇺🇸🐾

That’s why storytelling works.

Students watch entrepreneurs succeed

The Entrepreneur’s Portfolio helps students think through the decisions, risks & problem solving behind the success—not just the outcome itself

A great resource for entrepreneurship classes, summer learning & beyond

izzit Core Values — Episode 1: Critical Thinking

Students can get every answer right & still not understand anything.

That’s the gap critical thinking closes.

Without it, students repeat what they’re told. With it, they question, evaluate, & decide what they believe & why.
