The heart of the continuing project in promoting non school learning is the Internet. The Coalition's individual web page is only a piece of the particular growing interest in using the Internet for learning. Brain research has revealed that learning is not only different for each individual but also it is a continual non-linear process. That may be that we do not learn and also store one set of facts or possibly a discipline in one part of the mental. But that new knowledge if being taken in at all times and being harmonized within the existing single holistic sensory network of each person's brain. This individualized non-linear finding out cannot be efficiently forced on the group of students at the same time in the same place by the same technique. Finding out is a unique experience for every single person.
The Internet provides a substantially different mode of mastering. One can transfer quickly between areas of knowledge as desired and desired by the individual. To emphasize non-linear learning the actual www.growthinstitute.com is designed like a mandala. That is its cover page presents a number of alternatives for the reader not a linear listing. A reader may start with the philosophy practical examples resources general discussion or some other entry points. Internal links can lead the reader to other places inside the Coalition's web site or even other websites without a break in continuity. Claudia L'Amoreux as well as Ib Bang are coordinating the efforts to make the web site a model of what the Online may become in providing finding out experiences.

But we recognize that the web can not be a substitute for parents household friends teachers community or perhaps other means of learning and of social intercourse. So a solid emphasis of the web site is definitely on collaborative learning as well as the development of local learning communities. A special section is devoted to "New Chapters" that provide how to guidance to self-learners and their families. Subsections will be means form local communities How to organize cooperatives How to become a new Self-Learner Social Transformation Finding out Libraries and other topics required for collaborative learning programs. Merrill Tew a PhD pupil in education and Laddie Lushin a lawyer with twenty-five years experience with food cooperatives have provided "New Chapters" and are leading the development of these kind of concepts.
