A 3-minute activity that measures student autonomy.
Here's exactly what you'll do — no forms, no grading, no prep. Just two quick steps.
Welcome! Here's what to expect.
Thank you for helping us measure the impact of the Let Grow Experience! This quick, anonymous activity (powered by AgileBrain) uses simple, image-based prompts to gather real evidence that independence-building activities like this one help kids grow in confidence, capability, and autonomy — proof we can share with parents, schools, and policymakers to keep the childhood independence movement growing.
Students complete it once before their first Let Grow assignment, then again at year's end, so we can see how their sense of independence shifts over time. It's simple and completely anonymous — no names, no student IDs, nothing beyond grade level.
Two steps, start to finish
Try it yourself first, then hand it off to your class. That's the whole process.
Take it yourself
Click below and choose the grade you teach. You'll complete the same quick, image-based exercise your students will see — so you know exactly what to expect before sharing it.
Deliver it in your classroom
You'll get a simple link to share with your students. No setup, no accounts, no extra steps on your end.
Takes about 3 minutes. You'll pick your grade on the next page.
Why we're asking you to do this
A quick look at the thinking behind the activity — for teachers who want the "why," not just the "how."
Built on real science
A neuroscience-based, professionally validated exercise — not a guess. Quick image choices capture what surveys often miss.
Connects to independence
Results help us understand how autonomy and self-directed learning affect resilience, confidence, and anxiety in kids.
Privacy comes first
Every response is anonymous and aggregated. No individual student or teacher result is ever singled out or shared.
