Schools & Education (K-12)
Children naturally understand emergence - they watch ants, build sandcastles, and see how patterns form from simple actions. We provide age-appropriate projects from ant farm observation to coding swarm simulations. Our curriculum helps students discover that complex systems do not need central control, preparing them for a world where distributed intelligence is everywhere. Learning about ants becomes learning about systems thinking.
