The Private Eye Mission

The Private Eye is committed to:

• evoking a sense of wonder
• accelerating learning in every subject
• developing creativity, thinking, communication, and problem solving skills
• making education relevant, exciting and intellectually stimulating for all students K-16, and for all adults
• encouraging looking closely, changing scale, and thinking by analogy
• providing a fun, engaging, and flexible way for educators to meet national and state education standards
• providing quality materials, service, and teacher training workshops to help educators use The Private Eye process to achieve their education and curriculum goals

Rooted in a half century of educational research and in Kerry Ruef's original thinking, The Private Eye is easily the most efficient, investigative, hands-on minds-on inquiry program you can bring to your world.  It is a powerful research based strategy for teaching that can be used by every educator in any learning environment — simply requiring everyday objects, a jeweler's loupe, and a few simple questions.

Combine it with your existing curriculum and kits and use it regularly.  You’ll achieve the same thrilling results that millions of students and educators have worldwide.
