Dila Shea Strouder is the director of music programs at the Mosaic Youth Theatre in Detroit. When teachers need help making a lesson sticky, she goes into the classroom to inject a little music. She knows if she grabs them with a tune and lets them sing, they'll all learn for themselves,. Then teach each other because humans are learning machines.
You may think that to scale you need to cut humans out of the equation. The opposite is true. You can harness the power of the “human cloud” to solve almost any problem — as long as you keep the word “human” in the equation. That’s what former TaskRabbit CEO Stacy Brown-Philpot champions for this community of people who work with each other, teach each other, and continually learn from each other.
