Executive Summary

ANALYST: COI RESEARCH

A gamified online enrichment program derived from Elon Musk's Ad Astra school, focusing on teaching complex problem-solving and collaboration through team-based simulations.

rate_review Analyst Verdict

"Fills the 'soft skill' gap in K-12. Schools teach subjects; Synthesis teaches 'how to think' and 'how to work in a team' using game theory. It creates a high-pressure, low-stakes environment to build resilience."

warning The Challenge

Standard schools focus on memorization and individual testing. They rarely teach decision-making under uncertainty, game theory, or effective collaboration, which are the skills required in the modern workforce.

psychology The Solution

Developed a platform of complex mental games (e.g., 'Art for All', 'Constellation'). Students log in for weekly cohorts. They are thrown into teams and must solve open-ended strategy problems (like managing a supply chain or colonizing space). Moderators facilitate but do not teach. The focus is on iteration, negotiation, and chaos management.
