"JAM engages and involves students and teachers in a learning journey that uses museums and the arts provider community as the campus in a way that springboards the learner directly into exciting and ever deepening levels of inquiry and creativity. When technology is used to connect and engage, it sparks an appetite for learning that can't be stopped! Congratulations to Joe and Jeff and all our friends at Nuvana for the excellent work they are doing as they create and implement new ways for students of all ages to fall in love with learning!"

"I've never worked with a group that was so creative and competent. They delivered what was needed and exceeded expectations. Even under difficult conditions, they remained professional and seriously focused on reaching the goals of the project.

If you can combine a serious approach to create effective products with an inventive and fun-loving way of accomplishing it, you've defined this company. These folks are inventive, while able to keep their eyes on the target audience and the objectives they are trying to reach. The response from those audiences are a strong testament to the quality of their work and the inspiration they bring to it."

"As an educator, I'm continually seeking out effective ways to engage my students. Nuvana's approach to creativity and education challenges me-- in all the right ways. From gaming to broader on-line interaction platforms, their innovations have helped me to re-think the role of teacher and to re-design my relationships with students. WIth their tools, the "classroom" is now no longer just the four-walled rooms in my university. They have not only helped me to harness the many opportunities technology provides, but they have invigorated my need to make ideas matter."

"Nuvana has designed a teacher's dream. Their standards based educational games reinforce curriculum and concepts taught in class in an exciting, engaging and interactive way that gets students involved in their learning. Students enjoy the competitive nature of the "missions" and are easily pulled into a highly student centered content and skills based curriculum that is enjoyable for both the teacher and the student. A win-win all around!"
