Together Learning

Thanks to technology, we are teaching and learning differently, mostly for the better. Technology is moving towards on-demand, just-in-time learning from the internet, to mobile, and now on to immersive augmented and virtual environments. We believe that this will continue to blur the lines between the learner and the teacher. Together Learning is a community that understands teachers need to learn and learners need to teach. This is at the heart of the Together Learning philosophy.

Together Learning is an immersive and e-learning learning sandbox. We develop, test, research, and share digital learning content. It started in 2009 as a place to test and develop language learning content, web based software, and LMS platforms. It now has become a place for learning technologists and learners a like to share digital learning content. We are all learning together here, as new technologies facilitate.

Our Vision

Remote learning, blended learning, mobile learning, and immersive learning are terms educators are using more and more. But for learners, starting with a Google search or watching a YouTube video to start learning something is just a way of life. Our vision is to lean in on this idea that we all are teachers and learners and doing both is important for our future. So we believe that the best teachers are great students and the best learners can teach others with ease. We aim to create an environment where we learn together.

Our Values

  1. Open Knowledge - Free and open access to information is a foundation to a productive modern life, connected to ideas of the open web and platform agnosticism.
  2. Privacy by Design - Business models are increasing moving toward supporting revenue by collecting, curating, and trading behavioral surplus through technology. These models should be tempered with safety, ethics, and privacy concerns and designed as such.
  3. Digital Literacy for All - An informed public about the use of technology is key for a responsible and engaged digital society.

Our Community

We hope to be doing our best to be an open and inclusive community. We ask that if your learn from the community, try to teach something to the community, and vice versa. The foundation of the Together Learning Community is that we all try to add value to the group and try to seek learning opportunities.
