We are dedicated to engaging, equipping, and inspiring families from all walks of life in effective and consistent child discipleship, implementing easy-to-use tools and resources with minimal interference in daily schedules. The school and home collaboration is confirmed through research findings that when educators and parents work together as partners, they create opportunities for children to develop social, emotional, and academic competencies, including more positive attitudes toward school, elevated grades and test scores, higher attendance and homework completion. Frequent interaction between families and teachers is conducive to building trusted, receptive relationships, greater understanding of family experiences, relationships and cultures, and opportunities to work together sensitively and respectfully to support their children\u2019s learning and success.<\/p>\n<\/div>

There is also evidence that learning is optimized through repetition and processing concepts in smaller quantities over time \u2013 in slow drips \u2013 allowing time for key principles to be incorporated into a child\u2019s daily life.\u00a0<\/span>Launching Ground<\/span><\/i>\u00a0applies this drip method, offering a steady infusion of concepts in short bursts to accommodate busy schedules and facilitate higher engagement and greater retention and application.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Effect of Research on Program Design<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Utilizing the best practices for child development and training<\/b>:<\/b><\/p>\n

The Launching Ground framework is built as a functional force multiplier for overwhelmed families\u00a0by leveraging best practices in researched child development and training.\u00a0 Slow-drip\u00a0infusion counteracts the\u00a0<\/span>Ebbinghaus Forgetting Curve<\/span><\/i>, physical persistence\u00a0of learning material maximizes passive learning, and focus on conversational development\u00a0for relational health with strategically valuable\u00a0words addresses the \u201c<\/span>30 million word gap\u201d<\/span><\/i>\u00a0from a holistic perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n

Highly researched and effective core content:<\/b><\/p>\n

The core content \u2013 a meeting of leadership traits, success indicators, and Biblical\u00a0values\u00a0\u2013 of this program is research-based and Biblically-centered (eg. Delayed Gratification, Optimism, Resilience).<\/span><\/p>\n

A relatable, digestible, and practical delivery system:<\/b>
\n<\/b>A simplified in-home LaunchPad offers simple access (QR code, emails, and communication apps) for resources at your fingertips, including specialized content like engaging videos that unite people of all ages around each core element.<\/span><\/p>\n

A framework that is built to work with the chaos and overwhelming challenges of parenting:<\/b><\/p>\n

A variable depth well of resources, core content simplified, force multiplier conversations on-the- go.<\/span><\/p>\n

Design elements for partnerships in child discipleship<\/b><\/p>\n

Strategic Method of Alignment: Our framework brings strategic alignment (teachers, pastors, staff, parents, and multigenerational congregation members) throughout the year<\/span><\/p>\n

Using the right topics:\u00a0We build confidence through competence by focusing on topics that are relevant, easy to discuss, well resourced, and most of all, reference Biblical values.<\/span><\/p>\n

Technological Support:\u00a0With the right framework and functions in place, we can undergird it with appropriate technology (tools and working model to support varying needs and communication methods across churches, schools, and families.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Design considerations for diverse backgrounds<\/b><\/p>\n

By focusing on universal truth\u00a0expressed in the Word of God and research that highlights success indicators which go beyond socio-economic class (see above on research), this gives the greatest educational advantage to anyone from any background.<\/span><\/p>\n

By investing in youth from a very young age and embedding success indicators and Biblical truths into a long-term program aligned with supporting organizations, children have a far greater chance of growing up to an impactful life within and for their community of origin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Future plans to reach diverse backgrounds include translating content into other languages, strategies to walk alongside churches and families in economically depressed regions, and partnering with other churches who will also build lasting relationships that reach across socio-economic divides.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
