About us
The Good Project is one of the research initiatives housed at the Harvard Graduate School of Education’s Project Zero. Project Zero is an educational research group composed of multiple, independently-sponsored research projects. Since 1967, Project Zero has examined the development of learning processes in children, adults, and organizations. Today, Project Zero’s work includes investigations into the nature of intelligence, understanding, thinking, creativity, ethics, and other essential aspects of human learning. Our mission is to understand and enhance high-level thinking and learning across disciplines and cultures and in a range of contexts, including schools, businesses, museums, and digital environments. The Good Project promotes excellence, engagement, and ethics in education, preparing people to become good workers and good citizens who contribute to the overall well-being of society. Through our research-based concepts, frameworks, and resources, we seek to help students reflect upon the ethical dilemmas that arise in everyday life and give them the tools to make thoughtful decisions. Through its variety of components, The Good Project investigates realms such as work, civic participation, organizational collaboration, conceptions of quality, and secondary and higher education. The Good Project has designed a range of public materials, found in our resources section. The project welcomes inquiries and is open to possible collaborations.
