Greetings! I am Binh, a PT librarian from San Jose Public Library, Tully Branch. I am new to learning circle and I would like to learn more from this learning group and facilitators so that I can master the skills to help our library customers to benefit from online learning.
in the past, I supported many students in Vietnam to register and learn online from Coursera and get free certificates from Coursera in cooperation with other U.S. Universities.
Hope to “meet” many of you online.
Have a great day.
Binh

What motivated you to join P2PU
I have been learning for these last years alone online. Html, CSS, a little JS, Freecodecamp, team treehouse, code school, and Moocs from EdX, Coursera, etc. I love it but it’s freezing and lonely out there. -
What you’re hoping to achieve here
I love to build projects. And the current ones are about a free web full-stack bootcamp so that I can learn and reach my objectives with a team with similar goals.
I just landed in Tokyo after 18 years in China. I found a space that I want to organize so I can welcome learners and makers, build a UX Design lab place (I am searching for an installation kit) and start working on entrepreneurship course.
I created a program with different courses path curriculum following extensive online research. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately, I’m not sure yet) I came to the conclusion that doing/creating online program does not make any sense with all that is reachable of quality, free for all and on-demand everywhere you look on the web.
What I found interesting in the P2P learning concept/method/set-of-tools is the empowering aspect of it. Suddenly I feel great no to be an expert and facilitating anyway. It is liberating.
It will give me time to make mistakes and improve the course path again and again. I have the list of all moocs necessary.
One thing that I have not solved is Moocs are created unequal. In a course path including different moocs, all have at least 20 to 40% unusable, unactionable or unnecessary modules. So I am searching for a more API way to do it. -
Something that you recently learned
Difficult to answer. I am and love learning every day and it’s a blessing and a curse

Hi! My name is Dawn and I’m new to P2PU. I work at the Akron Summit County Public Library as a technology trainer. I have been training for the last 12 and a half years. I love my job. I love libraries. I can’t wait to see what exciting things I will learn from P2PU and all of you.

Hi all,
My name is Dana and I’m a full-time librarian for the San Jose Public Library system.
I joined P2PU so I could take training to become a Learning Circle Facilitator. I plan to offer a learning circle to our local library patrons in the next few months.
I’m looking forward to connecting with other facilitators to exchange ideas and share support. Scrolling through this discussion thread, I can see this is definitely the right place for that!
Hmm…I recently learned to make homemade granola!

Please keep in touch.
Best,

Hi @Dana_Lema! For granola, I’ve always heard that you should combine 6 parts dry ingredients with 1 part wet ingredient. What’s your take? What do you put in your granola?
Hi Dawn! Great to be connected. We work a lot with folks who support people to engage with technology from basic computer literacy to much higher level tech learning programs. I’m curious, what groups, networks, organizations related to your work inspire you these days?
Hi Binh,
Good to hear from you. Learning circles haven’t run in Vietnam to my knowledge, but if you have any networks or partners that might be interested in taking part, please feel free to connect us.
Good luck in San Jose!
Nico
Yes. Akron-Summit County Public Library.

Hello Dario,
I did not see your request for a list of free online digital literacy sites until just now. Better late than never, we say. Here’s the link to it. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wLQLNpwtzVA4oWnYCv5tUzorLMLHlMv7CMPP5HbCgN0/edit

Welcome @Eduardo_Bonsi! I moved your post to our list of introductions.
We’re looking forward to seeing these learning materials. I’ll follow up with a few of your notes about the Internet Society shortly.

Thanks, Nico, @Nico_Koenig
Yes, this is only the beginning of many more. Besides this course, I am presenting a proposal to the City of Healdsburg to build a telecommunications mesh network in my community through the Internet Society. I do have the experience of building a home server and doing this mesh network project will be fun. My idea, after we finish our mesh network is to extend this invitation to our cities and communities in the United States to have their backup plan for emergencies. I will be sure to put all that in writing and teach others how to do it!
Talk to you soon,
