We live to learn but we're tired of being taught. ↓
Playground is an open community exploring new futures for learning. We're creating:
- Now
- Learning Adventures: self-directed, six week research programs to create knowledge and explore the future of learning organizations.
- Next
- Tools anyone can copy, customize & unfold to create their own learning community.
- Futures
- A network of distributed & independent learning communities.
NOW
Let's talk Learning Adventures.
They're short, self-directed projects exploring possible futures for online learning.
And we want to help you start one. It can be simple or complex, a solo or collaborative effort. A piece of original research. A web app or prototype. A study group. Or another scenario you imagine.
How do you adventure?
- 1
- Decide what you'd like to explore & how you'd like to explore it. Not sure? Our community can help.
- 2
- Once you've begun, you start recording your references, ideas & notes publicly so others can follow in your footsteps.
- 3
- When you feel your Adventure is complete, you create and publish an artifact that can educate others about what you've discovered. It could be in the form of a blog post, photo essay, lecture, or anything you can think of.
What can you explore?
