World of Geniuses — From a bigger idea to a first step

01 The project

Help a child find
what to build on.

World of Geniuses develops tools to understand children's strengths. Quantum G is its current test. An education system built around each child's profile is also in development.

Who is behind the project?

The team brings together specialists in cognitive research, neuroscience, AI and learning design. The World of Geniuses company develops Quantum G, builds the digital infrastructure and supports the future education platform.

The aim is to give families and educators information they can use to support each child's development. The project's wider research asks how individual strengths might develop into new ideas and discoveries.

The project uses “genius” to mean creating a new way to explain or solve a problem at the level of its underlying principle. “Talent” means developing mastery within principles that already exist.

02 The individual

Your child takes the test.
You receive a profile.

Quantum G Beta is an online test for ages 6–16. The report describes areas of potential, related talents and thinking patterns, with guidance for parents.

At home, with a parent

3 sessions

About an hour each.

Use the profile alongside what you notice in your child's everyday life.

What does today’s assessment look at?

The child works through specially designed tasks. Quantum G looks for patterns in how they notice, group and respond to information, such as shapes, quantities or spatial relationships.

The report describes these early ways of processing information. Creating a new approach to a problem, or making a discovery years later, belongs to a different part of the project's research.

Read the profile alongside everyday observations and, when needed, other assessments and professional advice. Parents remain involved in choosing how to support their child.

03 The activity

What they choose.
How they get there.

The test looks at your child's responses and uses details of how they work through each task to help interpret them.

What does the test look at?

Responses to the tasks provide the main information. Where the child looks, the choices they make and changes along the way can help explain a response. These details are considered together, within the context of each task.

The published format is three online sessions of about an hour each, with a parent present. Preparation guidance specifies a suitable touchscreen tablet or laptop with a screen of at least 11 inches; this introduction can be viewed on a phone.

Method and research status

The methodology is published; the formal validation programme is under way. The proposed connection between an early profile and later discoveries is a developmental hypothesis requiring long-term evidence.

The profile provides an additional layer of information for family and professional interpretation. It is not a prediction of a child’s future achievements.
