Founded by philosopher Nelson Goodman at the Harvard Graduate School of Education in 1967, Project Zero began with a focus on understanding learning in and through the arts. Over the years, we have continued our inquiry into the arts and arts education, while drawing together diverse disciplinary perspectives to examine fundamental questions of human expression and development. Our research endeavors are marked by a passion for the big questions, a passion for the conceptual, a passion for the interdisciplinary, a passion for the full range of human development, and a passion for the arts.
 
Today Project Zero is an intellectual wellspring, nourishing inquiry into the complexity of human potentials – intelligence, understanding, thinking, creativity, cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural thinking, ethics – and exploring sustainable ways to support them across multiple and diverse contexts. Anchored in the arts and humanities, and with a commitment to melding theory and practice, we continue to work towards a more enlightened educational process and system that prepares learners well for the world that they will live, work and develop

Technology and modernization are increased and students are not prepared for this 21st century. Education is obsolete and has not changed over 1000 years. For that reason, Dr Cristine Ortiz is creating a new type of university and education where the principle goals are: focuses on the transdisciplinary interface between technology and humanity emphasizes personalized, holistic and research-based pedagogy employs dynamic organizational structures and a high quality, low cost, scalable financial model, to serve more underserved and underprivileged students.Ortiz want to change the education and this is the firs step to do it.

"What technology does for the first time is allow the student to control time, place, and pace. It doesn't change the equation of higher education, but makes it much more inclusive." [Lambert]
