Flying car runways, air trains, solar panels… it’s time to imagine the future! In this week’s hands-on challenge, students dream big and build smarter—designing sustainable, creative cities that reflect their values and vision.
Copy & Paste this Prompt
‘Design a STEM-based activity for my 3rd graders that doesn’t exceed one class period. The focus should be on the question “What is solar energy and how is it used?” The activity should help students understand the basic concept of solar energy, visualize how a simple system works, and express their learning through a creative storytelling format. Students will imagine the Sun as a superhero and create a short comic featuring a solar panel and a cute robot powered by solar energy. The only materials needed are paper and colored pencils; the activity should be both fun and educational.’
🌍 Meaningful Global Impact with AI
At the Meaningful Global Impact with AI session last week, leading voices in tech and education—Sıla Kılıççöte, Hakan Aran, and Onur Koç—came together to explore the future of AI, the latest developments from Silicon Valley, and how these technologies can enable inclusive, sustainable education even in disaster-affected regions. With its co-founders also contributing to the session, Twin once again stood out not just as a practitioner—but as a guiding voice in global conversations on AI literacy and educational equity.
The global impact honored by TIME continues to grow!

The Experiment – Piraye
Our teacher from Hatay, Cemile Çağrı Çolak, recommends The Experiment—a book she read just before the earthquake that helped her find strength through one of life’s hardest chapters. Today, as an inspiration to countless children and teachers, she continues to share the light that once guided her. A powerful read for anyone seeking clarity, resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Les Choristes
A powerful film recommendation from Twin Ambassador and inspiring teacher Adem Yıldırım: The Chorus. Set in a strict boarding school after World War II, the story follows music teacher Mathieu, who helps troubled children rediscover hope and direction through the power of music. This touching film reminds us how one compassionate teacher can spark transformation in even the most difficult circumstances.

📣 Key Headlines for Educators
Learning at the Speed of Light
In this GSV talk, Michael Moe explores how AI is accelerating the pace of learning—and warns of the widening gap it may create. As an ASU+GSV Summit 2023 Elite 200 Finalist, Twin stands for more than innovation: it stands for balance. Just as our name suggests, we believe that every child—whether in a top-tier school or an underserved village—deserves access to the same tools and possibilities. By bringing the latest science and technology to all, we help make learners everywhere each other’s “ Twin” closing the gap not with slogans, but with shared opportunity.
Giving Every Marie and Albert a Chance
Talent is everywhere—but opportunity isn’t. Studies show that students from low-income backgrounds with high potential could be four times more likely to become innovators, teachers, artists, or leaders—if they had the same access and inspiration. That’s why Twin brings cutting-edge science with role models to underserved communities—helping lost potential grow into tomorrow’s changemakers.
