About This Work
The training I offer provides a set of frameworks, practices, and tools to facilitate a flourishing peer-learning ecosystem. My work comes working closely with adult learners for fifteen years to co-create new learning formats, including establishing and directing an innovative and thriving school in Los Angeles, Oxygen Tango. During this period, I discovered firsthand the power, fun, and variety of peer-to-peer learning formats and the many benefits they bring. I can help you get started with:
Learning Cohorts
The purpose of a Learning Cohorts is to create a social field that allows each learner to feel connected with themselves, with one another, and with the larger community as they learn.
Buddy Systems
Learning Labs
Buddy Systems are a structured form of peer-mentoring that help new learners become integrated into a new community. These are augmented by Peer Practice, which pairs cohort members with one another.
In Learning Labs, we pair up learners, optimizing for asymmetric levels. Each person spends 2 shifts learning, 2 shifts teaching. A documented curriculum of micro-lessons (missions) is provided, and facilitators troubleshoot.
