The Graduate Aims Database is a growing collection of summaries focused on research-based learning outcomes that our school partners often take influence from when constructing their own graduate aims. Each summary includes information to help define and measure the outcome, insights into how the outcome develops, potential design implications, and debates or nuances related to the outcome that often have critical equity, inclusion, and justice implications.

Our organization’s mission is to enable visionary learning communities to build and spread breakthrough models that prepare children to thrive in and transform the 21st century. We do this in three ways: 1.) We build and spread innovative models in partnership with visionary school communities. 2.) We build and deploy a diverse force of R&D talent, called the Yellow Hats League, to develop, codify and spread these new learning models. 3.) We build and share actionable knowledge to inform the innovation process with evidence-based insights

Transcend’s Graduate Aims Database is free and available online for design teams to use now. Local communities apply the database in ways that make the most sense to them and they can collaborate to integrate this research into their own context.
