Learning Design
We focus on competency, literacy, and dispositions for success in a digital age. We design original, project-driven learning content that helps youth build their ability to create technology with purpose, while exploring computing, electronics, games, design, and more.
Mouse believes that learning technology is no longer about basic engineering, computation, or information alone, but building the skills and senses to apply technology creatively to make a positive impact in the world around them.
Mouse supports educators with quality professional development and training in K-12 computer science and STEM courses. Click HERE to lean more about how we support our educators.

Mouse Create
Mouse Design League
Mouse Design League is a design and technology program in which high school students create inventions to make a positive impact on the lives of others. Design League members develop creativity, problem solving, and collaboration skills, and build confidence in designing technology with purpose. See our recent projects!
Mouse has been running its Design League program for more than 10 years for NYC High School students. With the support of the National Science Foundation, we launched our first Design League in the Bronx with DreamYard in Fall 2017.
Our Learning Platform
Educators and youth can select from many competency areas and create playlists that include the projects that best align with their learning and youth development goals.
Youth will receive digital badges through Credly to recognize their accomplishments, which they can share on social media networks and college applications. Learn more about our Mouse Digital Badges.
When youth upload their work on Mouse Create, they can publish to a project gallery to share their work with others and provide feedback on projects submitted across the network.
