What is SLOWER LEARNING?

Slower Learning is a community of adult learners who

  • values the challenges of deep learning

  •  opposes standardization in education

  • defends against homogenization of learning

  • champions the pleasures of learning

  • builds decentralized  learning  communities

  • promotes inquiry and dialogue

 Slow Food, alternative media, informal education and  DIY communities.

As a community, Slower Learning projects offer

  • mentoring partnerships

  • tools for social and professional networking

  • community studio space

  •  development of individual learning plans

  • goal setting workshops and ongoing support

  • arts-based workshops and retreats

  • creativity "playdays"

  • continued support in realizing goals and intended outcomes
