Viewpoints Research Institute (VPRI) was a nonprofit organization founded in 2001 with the aim of improving powerful ideas education for children worldwide and advancing systems research and personal computing. Their research focused on teaching and learning powerful ideas, developing user interfaces that aid learning, inventing new computing technologies, and representing powerful ideas content.
VPRI's globally dispersed research group, influenced by the whole systems design tradition of ARPA and Xerox PARC, aimed to help children develop fluency in various areas of learning, including thinking, math, and science. In 2016, VPRI joined Y Combinator Research's Human Advancement Research Community (HARC) to collaborate on projects and share ideas, expanding their reach and resources for technology research in programming languages, interfaces, education, and virtual reality.
