@joinprisma Was great! Would love to hear more about the co-learning aspect and how peers will support one-another's learning. How roles of coach/learner/peer being in flux plays into the process.
Excited to dive into the Social Emotional Learning Roadmap for Reopening schools, and see where the #EvoLearn math learning community could possibly fit in for school. https://t.co/dRwhsk8wkO
Ready for #SOCAPVirtual (Social Capital) Conference round 2 for me! It will be October 19-23. Whether Entrepreneur or Impact Investor, this is great place to network and wrap your head around funding and partnerships. Summer promo ends today. https://t.co/9u7zxOMlee

Learning is simple and beautiful, but hard. Making excuses is complex and ugly, but easy. This is one of the reasons new learning communities need to exist: to cut the crap and get to the real hard work

4/5 Estimates from survey responses will be shared with the Dean of Administration and Finance at Harvard University (Allen Aloise) so that relevant parties can leverage this information in time for the Harvard-MIT hearing on Tuesday 7/14 at 3PM.
2/5 The press has cited estimates of the financial cost of this change to be $41-45 billion dollars (roughly the GDP of Slovenia). This estimate is likely under measuring the negative effects given that it mostly reflects university tuition + expenses.
@KarlStraussBeer Depends on the Karl. For me, Mosaic is perfect in the can. I always have a few, so the cans just feel right. For other KS beers, like the Aurora, Red Trolley, or especially some of the older ones (Amber, Tower 10), bottles feel right.
@Mike_Pence@VP@WhiteHouse With incredible solutions like @joinprisma opening up, and many, many other remote learning solutions available, I disagree with this as a general statement. Let's use this as a moment of pause and pivot.
To evolearn is to develop oneself as a learner, and here is the first post of the The Evolearn (TM) Blog, concerning the development of a new kind of learning community.
