SCY aims to take science education to the next level by developing a flexible, open-ended learning environment that truly engages and empowers adolescent learners. Within this learning environment --called SCY Lab-- students embark on authentic missions that can be completed through constructive and productive learning activities. SCY Lab provides adaptive support for these activities through cutting-edge technologies as well as pedagogical scaffolds that go well beyond the state of the art.

The video was used to introduce SCY as "showcase" during the Dies Natalis at the University of Twente in the fall of 2008. The video shows students working on the mission “Designing a CO2 friendly house”. (The movie has no sound).
