"The Education Achievement Authority of Michigan (EAA) was created to turn around the academic performance of the state’s lowest-achieving schools. We currently oversee 15 schools in Detroit, including nine elementary/middle schools (three of which are charter schools) and six high schools. In just 18 months, our students have made substantial academic progress in large part due to our unique learning structure that includes a longer school day and year, expert teaching staff and a blended, student-centered learning model. In fact, 59 percent of students achieved 1.5 or more years’ growth in reading, and 58 percent of students achieved 1.5 or more years of growth in math after our first year. Also, our Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) scores for 2013 showed steady progress, with 12.1 percent of students who were not proficient in reading the previous year achieving the state standard. Overall, 38.2 percent of our students made progress toward or beyond grade-appropriate proficiency in reading, and 21.4 percent improved in math."

In a world where technology touches every aspect of our lives, it is crucial that our children become active creators of technology, not just passive users. What separates those who simply have an idea from those who make their ideas a reality is the ability to program. Our mission is to provide every child with solid foundations in STEM, (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) programming and critical thinking skills to prepare them to become better architects of their future world. Tynker's creative computing platform helps children develop computational thinking and programming skills in a fun, intuitive and imaginative way. The innovative visual programming language, interactive self-paced courses, and game-based programming activities provide an easy introduction to programming, and empower children to innovate and create. Tynker is available on the Web, on iPad and Android-based tablets so that kids can make fun and useful applications for the same mediums they consume from.
