101

The college lecture hasn’t fundamentally changed in centuries. We’ve seen technology touch every aspect of our lives and yet today’s students sit and passively listen to their professors lecture exactly like did in the middle ages.

101 is transforming the college STEM lecture hall with a next-generation active learning platform that promotes student engagement and improves student outcomes. Our first product for chemistry, Chem101, has quickly grown to over 300 colleges, universities and other schools. Our unique approach focuses on elegant, discipline-specific interactive assessment tools, such as molecular structure drawing, that triumph over traditional and generic multiple choice tools like clickers.

We are a team of scientists, engineers, and educators who are redefining the way students learn and interact with their subject-matter. We’re backed by some of the biggest names in the business including Birchmere Ventures, University Ventures, Dreamit, Rough Draft Ventures, Dorm Room Fund, and a number of leaders from the publishing industry. We’ve taken home prizes at business competitions across the country, voted Inc. Magazine’s Coolest College Startup of 2017, and have been featured on CNBC as a leader in this space.
