# data[].attributes.body
Generation Genius utilizes multiple key multimedia principles that focus on combining text and image, and video elements into a lesson. The approach used by Generation Genius is to watch a narrated/hosted video demonstration or lesson, review study materials that contain appropriate graphics and text, generate discussions, and take a quiz or other knowledge check to ensure concepts are learned. The ability to front load content also exists by adding a vocabulary section to review first. The interactivity and ability to turn learning into a game is a great way to aid in content absorption. The step by step methods used also create natural segmentation points that can prevent cognitive overload in the student.

Meet The Founders

Dr. Jeff Vinokur, PhD

PhD in Biochemistry, Molecular & Structural Biology from UCLA.

Dr. Jeff Vinokur, 29, has performed science experiments on dozens of TV shows such as NBC's Today Show, ABC's The View, Rachel Ray and has over 25M YouTube views.

His stage show has toured internationally with presentations at the World Science Festival, Singapore Science Festival, Smithsonian Institution, CalTech, and over 400 schools from San Francisco to Boston. Dr. Jeff has also invented science toys found in Target, consulted on an Emmy-nominated science show for Netflix, and appeared in a 2020 Super Bowl commercial.

His science credits include a full scholarship to UCLA, prestigious fellowships from the National Science Foundation and an impressive track record of research publications studying biofuels.

Dr. Jeff created Generation Genius after visiting hundreds of schools and realizing that they were using VHS tapes from the 1990s. Over 100 episodes were made since launching in 2018 and they are now being translated into spanish and mandarin.

The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are K-12 academic standards that set the expectations for what students should be able to do by certain grade levels. It was developed by 26 U.S. states, the National Science Teaching Association and other organizations. NGSS and adaptations of it are used in about 40 states.

What happened to your home plan?

We launched Generation Genius in 2018 as a classroom product based on Dr. Jeff's school visits. During the 2020 pandemic, we added a lower-cost home plan to support at-home learning. Now 3 years after the pandemic year, home users are less than 3% of our subscribers. Additionally, there has been an unfortunate issue with teachers getting home plans to use in school and password sharing among homeschoolers.

For these reasons, we decided to sunset the home plan. It is important to note that anyone previously on a home plan can keep it along with their original lower rate. We grandfather all subscribers into their original rate and have never increased prices on existing subscribers. This remains true.

For those interested, homeschool group rates for 20 or more users are still available at $149/year per family (50% off). If you have 20 or more families in your group, please reach out to[email protected] for more information.
