Learn With Peers For Hands-On Skills
- Find peers to learn with when you need practice and experimentation rather than just information.
- Create small learning groups and share hourly progress to cross-pollinate ideas and accelerate skill growth.
AI Hackathon Peer Learning Example
- Petra attended an AI hackathon with five people where they blocked half a day to experiment and share hourly learnings.
- Short, focused sessions and regular sharing helped everyone progress together quickly.
Curate People, Not Just Content
- Curate who influences you deliberately as part of learning, not just content sources.
- Teresa builds a personal learning network of writers and teachers to shape her expertise over time.
