Community science
Four open platforms under the Share & impact pathway — contribute without a class code. Each pairs with a school inquiry world for deeper investigation, portfolio evidence, and teacher release.
Three layers — same topics, different jobs
- Step 1
Open community science
Log moth photos, tank readings, flights, or robot protocols — no class code. Data stays in the open platform layer.
- Step 2
School inquiry world
Your teacher releases VOICE steps, portfolio work, and datasets — consent-gated and separate from open uploads.
- Step 3
Class insights hub
Browse anonymised patterns from other school groups on the same topic — ideas to test, not answers to copy.

Six specialist platforms, one curriculum
Each platform serves an inquiry world in the Kōkiri curriculum. Platforms are developed in response to curriculum and inquiry requirements, not the reverse.
