A New Learning Model
The 01 Edu system which powers 01 Founders bases its learning model on 3 paradigms as outlined in the video above by our Head of Technology and Pedagogy – Hana Abdi:
- Memorising knowledge long term is unnecessary and reduces creativity
- Transmitting knowledge leaves people in the dark
- Collective intelligence is superior to individual expertise
In other words, the entire model of 01 Founders is based on the idea of intelligence or knowledge through social collaboration, the very principle of “socio-cognitive conflict”.
To achieve this, 01 Founders programmes develop a series of qualities that allow each learner to perform in their learning, and sharing with others, whoever they may be:
- Grow sociability
- Learn to Learn
- Learn to correct without giving answers
- Be corrected without receiving answers
- Learn to adapt to uncertainty
- Learn to seek, find and then create solutions with others
- Learn to define goals and gain the means to achieve them
- Learn through play and fun
These principles and methods are a clear break from the traditional academic learning system. Differences exist even with most so-called reverse or alternative pedagogies.
At 01 Founders we believe the power of these qualities will translate into a workforce that is comfortable with uncertainty and adapting quickly to change. Ready for organisations to deploy successfully as they operate in a rapidly changing environment.
That’s why we see this as the power of embracing Collective Intelligence.
