AprendoLab helps teachers develop the skills to mediate learning using AI, focusing on core competencies and collaborating with key stakeholders to meet local educational needs across Latin America.
Organization Background
Fundación Reimagina, founded by Ana Maria Raad, emerged during the pandemic as a response to the educational challenges faced across Latin America. AprendoEnCasa was born as a partnership with the Harvard Regional office of Latin America from a collaborative effort to address the needs of communities when schools were inaccessible.
Key achievements include:
- Impacting 780 schools across Latin America
- Establishing over 80 collaborative partnerships in 8 countries
- Creating more than 750 free educational resources for teachers
- Building a network of 15,000 active members
- Reaching 1,800,000 educational platform users
The MVP: Design & Impact
AprendoLab, developed by Fundación ReImagina, builds on the success of AprendoEnCasa to deliver personalized, AI-curated learning routes for teachers across Latin America. The platform uses a modular structure; each lesson includes “Engage”, “Learn”, and “Try” components and is tailored to user profiles gathered through onboarding surveys. AI-generated routes adapt based on national curricula, pedagogical needs, and teacher feedback.
Impact to date:
- 3,000+ teachers have registered across 11 countries
- 1,800 teachers completing learning routes
- Over 120 curated resources and 100+ micro-resources developed
- Integrated with UNESCO’s digital portal
Future Prospects
Fundación Reimagina has set ambitious goals for AprendoLab:
- Scale to at least 500,000 active users on the new platform within five years
- Expand operations to at least 5 countries
- Reach 6,000 educators in the next phase
- Develop certified professional-development pathways in partnership with education ministries
Ultimately, the organization envisions AprendoLab as an agile and adaptable platform, constantly evolving to meet the changing needs of local communities across Latin America.
