Its aim is to be an experiment in a new learning environment, blurring the boundaries between coffee shops and schools, between home-schooling and institutional schooling, between tactile, multisensory methods and abstract thinking. Wildflower will serve as a research platform to test new ideas in advancing the Montessori Method in the context of modern fluencies, as well as to test how to direct the organic growth of a social system that fosters the growth and connection of such schools."<ref name="media.mit.edu"/></blockquote> | The current research projects at the MIT social computing lab include The Dog Programming Language,<ref>{{Cite web|title = The Dog Programming Language|url = http://www.dog-lang.org/|website = www.dog-lang.org|access-date = 2015-04-23|url-status = dead|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150429141930/http://www.dog-lang.org/|archive-date = 2015-04-29}}</ref> Wildflower Montessori, and You Are Here.<ref>{{Cite web|title = You Are Here|url = http://youarehere.cc/|website = youarehere.cc|access-date = 2015-04-23}}</ref> A broad overview of what to expect from newly started Wildflower Montessori is as follows:<blockquote>"Wildflower Montessori School is a pilot Lab School and the first in a new network of learning centers.
