genius hour is a project in the classroom and sometimes in a workplace where students or/and employees are allowed to explore their own passions and wonders for a depending amount of time, usually 1 hour per week to 20% of their total class time. Teachers allow students to pick a topic of their own, usually framed around an inquiry question, based on their own passions or wonders.
