An all-new, revamped MAD-learn is here!  We officially unveiled our new platform – which incorporates all six steps of the design thinking process – on March 23, 2023, along with some of our global partners including Teq, National Council for Community and Education Partnerships (NCCEP), and CSforAll. Our celebration featured educators from across the country and showcased our uniquely crafted program with design thinking at its core, as well as the relationships and partnerships we have developed and nurtured over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we transition all <\/strong>accounts to our new platform this summer,<\/strong> please be advised that teachers, students, and stakeholders will no longer be able to build and create apps on our legacy platform starting July 1, 2023.  Any apps previously created on our legacy platform will still be accessible to view (with the app URL or 9-digit code).  If you would like training on our new platform, please click here<\/a> to schedule a virtual meeting with our Customer Success Team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
