Lucas Learning


Lucas Learning was a company founded by George Lucas in 1996 as a spin-off to LucasArts in order to provide challenging, engaging and fun educational software for classrooms. Many of their award-winning titles were based on the national curriculum. The company was located in San Rafael, California, and was headed by former MECC senior vice president of development and creative director Susan Schilling. Shilling asserted that Lucas was personally involved with the products and that a company mantra was to stay away from violence.
