A powerful learning experience is indeed personalized, but it's also *personal* -- grounded in relationships with peers to collaborate with and mentors to guide you.

How can learning be designed to take advantage of:
- peers
- near-peers (someone one step ahead)
- mentors (amateur and expert)
How do you find the people you are looking for when you need them?

A good way to start learning: find a buddy. You'll go much further together.
A few benefits: thinking out loud, teaching through learning, pushing one another.
Learning happens in the world, not just in your head

What's uniquely possible when you start from an online first approach to education? How do you go "beyond being there" when designing an online course/learning experience?

"Even when we know the process of how to teach something, it is still unclear how each student actually learns. The education industry needs to explore how AI can make teachers even more effective" @juulchristensen on the role of AI in Education forbes.com/sites/ulrikjuulch…
