Your Classroom, Powered by Real Tools, Real Data, and Real Systems.
Give your students real tools and real data to work with. Students connect what they're learning to actual energy systems they can see and measure. The work feels like real engineering—because it is. Your students will enjoy it because they're building something, testing it, and watching it work. You don't need a science background to guide it. Roadmaps, support, and data tools are all included.

No student accounts, no PII. Students join sessions with a temporary code and a self-chosen nickname — no email, no password, no personal information collected. See our Privacy Policy
Everything You Need to Lead Real Science
When students use real sensors and real data, things start to click. They measure something themselves and know what it means. That is when they start thinking like engineers.
Every teacher access includes:
Project Roadmaps
Step-by-step guides that walk you and your students through building, testing, and explaining energy systems. Easy to follow if you are new to hands-on science.
Coding Built Into Your Lessons
Build hands-on coding into your science class. Students program real small computers with sensors to collect and analyze their own data. No separate computer science class needed.
Real Data & Measurement
Students use real sensors to collect real electricity data. They see numbers they measured themselves, not made-up examples. That makes the math and science feel concrete and worth doing.
Student Portals (No Login)
Students join your session with a simple temporary code - no email, no password, no Personally Identifiable Information (PII) collected.
What Happens When Students Use Real Tools
One student is wiring a sensor. Another is writing the code to read it. A third is looking at the data they just collected, asking why the numbers changed. None of them are staring at a textbook.
This is what a project session looks like. Students are building energy systems, collecting real data, and explaining what they found. You guide the curiosity. The roadmaps guide the rest.
Students build things that actually work
They wire sensors, write code, and watch their own data appear on screen. When something doesn't work, they figure out why. That's engineering.
Students stay curious because the work is real
When the data comes from something they built themselves, students want to understand it. They ask "why does that happen?" because they genuinely want to know.
You can run this without a science background
Your job is to keep the questions going: "What do you notice? What would change if we did this differently?" The roadmaps and guides handle the rest.
Three Ways to Get Started in Your Classroom
Pick what fits your classroom today. No prerequisites. No waiting. Start with one project, after-school club, or enrichment time. Independent classroom access is on our roadmap — to join the interest list, visit our contact page.
Start with One Project
Pick a project that fits a unit you already teach. Try it with one class. No need to overhaul your whole curriculum.
Run After-School Club or Enrichment
Use LEA in after-school STEM club, enrichment time, or electives. The roadmaps and data tools let you run rigorous, meaningful learning without being a specialist.
See Real Student Growth Happen
Watch the assessments show you exactly what your students learned and where they need more help. See your students gain real confidence.
How Access Works
Three ways to get started: book a professional service, request a pilot program for your school, or join our interest list for the self-serve platform launching soon.
Start with Introductory Access
Access the opening lessons in each project at no cost — see the full project roadmap and how students engage before deciding to upgrade.
Buy Full Access for Your Classroom
Access all courses, get detailed tracking on what students learned, and get step-by-step support to run each project successfully. Just you and your students — everything you need is included.
Add Professional Support (Optional)
Book coaching, a hardware help call, or a classroom session with our founder. Optional, on-demand, and designed to help you run your first project with confidence.
Professional Services
Available now — these services are bookable immediately to help you prepare and get started.
Classroom Implementation Coaching
One-on-one coaching sessions to help you sequence projects within your existing curriculum, prepare student groups, and troubleshoot hardware setups before your first run.
Founder-Led Classroom Session
Dr. Naeem Turner-Bandele visits your classroom — virtually or in person — to deliver a project directly to your students while you observe expert facilitation in action.
Hardware Roadmap Consultation
We provide a tailored hardware (pocket computers) and sensor kit list for your classroom size and budget. Know exactly what to order and where to source it before your first project day.
Standards Roadmap
We map every Latimer Energy Academy project to your state's benchmarks so you can see exactly which standards your students are meeting—helping you make confident curriculum decisions and identify where each student needs support.
