3 little words...
...that individually represent the fundamentals of what Copernicus expect from their products. And together, these words act as a mantra. Copernicus is not about developing the latest shiny thing or cool gadget. It is about listening and acting on what is really needed, really important and really effective in elementary classrooms. In essence, Copernicus products have to have real purpose, in the real world and be available at realistic prices.
 

Real. Products are only developed based on identified classroom needs and in conjunction with their Idea Lab Educator Advisors.

Classroom. Products are tested in real classrooms over an extended period of time (sometimes over 6 months).

Ready. After testing, the feedback from teachers and students is used to further refine the design. The testing loop begins again until we are all satisfied with every detail.
