Wildflower Labs
Wildflower seeks to fundamentally transform the experience of being a teacher. We bring together experienced researchers, teachers, and product developers to create groundbreaking technology that captures data on each student's individual learning journey from the physical Montessori environment - all without the use of testing or screen time for children. By enhancing teacher's classroom observation with relevant, actionable data, Wildflower better enables teachers to support each child's growth.
Can we give teachers more insightful and
useful information about the development
of the children in their classroom?
Montessori Environment​
The Montessori method is a 100-yr
old, research-backed, personalized
educational approach that nurtures
children’s intrinsic love of learning
and internal motivation to reach
their full potential.
Advanced Student Observation Tools
Unobtrusive low-powered sensors
and cameras placed throughout the
classroom as well as smart pens and
smartwatches for teachers to
seamlessly capture interactions,
lessons and more.
Spotlight & Report
In April 2024, Wildflower Labs was a featured in Promise Venture Studio's Show + Tell event for policy-makers, funders and education thought-leaders across the U.S. Check out our pitch video, featuring Wildflower Labs Director Ted Quinn sharing progress on our Observant Education tool, which uses AI-powered technology to capture the most important observable information from early childhood and early elementary learning environments and distills it into actionable insights to support individualized learning.
We are grateful to Montessori Life magazine for spotlighting our work at Wildflower Labs in their recent article, "Technology as a Tool for Observation." Wildflower believes in the power of technology to enhance the Montessori experience, enriching the observation process and fostering a deeper understanding of each child's unique journey.
