Coming Soon!
LANIA
A Platform for Learning and Creative Collaboration through the Arts
Developed in Collaboration with LabXchange at Harvard University
With access to over 45 million users worldwide through LabXchange, Harvard’s acclaimed STEM learning platform, LANIA will have an unprecedented opportunity to make its innovative Arts + STEM experiences freely available to schools and communities everywhere.
MISSION
It is the mission of lania to create a free education platform that will provide,
An interactive, multidimensional, K-12 curriculum that bridges the arts and STEM, and weaves together diverse forms of knowledge at all levels
Lessons and activities that develop higher-order thinking skills, nurture creative intelligence, and inspire a love of learning that will last a lifetime
Emerging technologies to support personalized learning and creative exploration
Imaginative activities and experiences that spark creative collaboration across disciplines
LANIA FOUNDATION
The LANIA Foundation is a non-profit organization being developed with the purpose of creating a platform for integrated arts+STEM educational programs in collaboration with LabXchange at Harvard University and the Bernard L. Schwartz Center for Media and Education at Fordham University. LANIA programs and experiences will also be available to schools and cultural centers locally through institutional partnerships and through LANIA Centers in the US and internationally.
FOUNDER
LANIA is directed by Dr. Edward Bilous, Founding Director of the Center for Creative Technology at the Juilliard School and Artistic Director of the Future Stages Festival. He is an acclaimed composer and internationally recognized advocate for the arts in education. Our leadership team includes alumni of Stanford University, MIT, and Juilliard.
The Arts as Gateway to Learning
On LANIA, great work of music, dance, visual arts, and architecture become gateways into a multidimensional curriculum that reveals the links between diverse forms of knowledge. Interactive tools will enable learners to examine the works from multiple perspectives including, structure and design, the use of space and time, materials and technologies, cultural and historical context, and social-emotional resonance.
using ai to support personal learning
Advanced learning technologies will enable users to create personalized learning pathways that bridge arts and STEM topics. Along the way, AI tools will reveal how patterns and forces found at all levels of nature underlie many works of art, and how the arts inspired many scientific discoveries and achievements. Users will be invited to apply their newly gained insight to creative projects they can share with the LANIA community.
LANIA + LabXchange
LANIA and LabXchange will be linked. Users who wish to deepen their understanding of STEM concepts introduced on LANIA can enroll in special courses on LabXchange. Likewise, teachers and students working on LabXchange can enrich their STEM learning with related arts experiences on LANIA.
