The Learning Force

prepared to thrive in the 21st century. We originally thought we were going to create an awesome foundational learning practice (which we did) and our job would be complete. What we found in the process, however, was that a rich educational experience cannot focus simply on intellectual development; it involves more, much more. It demands more than personal development, and more than educating the "mind, body and spirit" of which many holistic educators speak. In fact, it includes the whole world, because the 21st century is defined by a global economy, global awareness, global communication, and global challenges. Our vision for education therefore includes beingstalk, a crowd-sourced, social networking platform that integrates entrepreneurship, education, technology, psychology, gamefulness, 21st century leadership, philanthropy, and inclusivity. Beingstalk is comprised of three interdependent stems that ensure the most potent learning experience:
Grow (personal development)
Know (holistic intellectual development)
Show (social entrepreneurship)
Please visit our site to learn more. We welcome your comments and questions, both as we construct the platform, and especially once beingstalk is launched, because it won't be the same without you!
