Partner Spotlight: Thank You, San Diego Bicycle Collective! 🚲 ✨

A huge thank you to the San Diego Bicycle Collective for being an amazing partner of the Jacobs Institute for Innovation in Education and helping make our 10th Annual STEAM Youth & Community Conference so special.

This year, they generously donated 35 bicycles for our opportunity drawings and we extend a huge round of appreciation to Benjamin Herbert for being such an amazing volunteer.

We also want to thank Victor Chang for leading an engaging "Bicycle Basics: Riding, Safety & Maintenance" workshop, equipping youth and families with hands-on skills they can use long after the conference.

For 10 years, our annual STEAM Youth & Community Conference has welcomed more than 4,500 learners through free, bilingual STEAM experiences. That impact is only possible because of incredible collaborators like the San Diego Bicycle Collective, whose continued support helps us inspire the next generation.

Thank you for your partnership, generosity, and commitment to our community. 💙

Interested in collaborating with the Jacobs Institute for Innovation in Education? We'd love to partner with organizations that are passionate about expanding access to STEAM and creating meaningful opportunities for youth and families.

Two weeks. Hundreds of folds. Countless discoveries. ✨

This summer, students explored mathematics through creativity, collaboration, and hands-on learning. Together with dedicated educators, volunteers, and community partners, we witnessed curiosity grow into confidence: one fold at a time.

Thank you to everyone who made the VisMO Summer Program such a meaningful experience.

Here's to inspiring the next generation of curious thinkers. VisMO™ is an initiative of The University of SanDiego, The Jacobs Institute for Innovation in Education. 💙

Is AI actually working in your classroom? 👩‍🏫

AI is taking over education headlines, but your experience as an educator isn't being talked about enough. We want to change that. 🍵

The Jacobs Institute is launching the online 2026 AI and I Survey to understand how PreK-12 educators are navigating this shift. Your voice ensures that the future of EdTech is built by teachers, for teachers.

How it works:
✅ 10-15 minutes.
✅ No links to your school or district.
✅ Early birds (first 50 responders) are automatically entered to win a $50 gift card!
