The Art of Self-Directed Learning
Manifesto
Would you love to pick up a new skill?
Have you ever tried teaching yourself something and then either gave up completely or paid a lot of money to go to classes where results still aren't guaranteed?
I feel you.
Here are the key principles of self-directed learning.
About
On a mission to help you rediscover learning and gain the confidence in creating your dream life!
Charlotte Zhao
Chief Growth Officer
A director at codebar.io, self-taught software engineer, coach, speaker, and globetrotter, with a keen passion advocating for self-directed learning and emotional wellbeing. Busy creating a safe place for adult learners to find inspirations and become empowered to teach themselves new skills. We'll challenge traditional schooling and inspire more people to become modern-day Renaissance women and men!
I am on a 1-year experiment: 365 days of applying my learning methods to acquire different skills of my interest. I’ll document the journey and openly share the successes and failures, also musings on the funny thing called life. Please follow me and see how I structure these self-directed learnings. Let's grow together!
Accelerated Learning Challenges
Too little time to learn something new?
These are learning challenges I've tried.
See what's possible?
The sky is the limit!
Challenge #1: Learn to Draw Cartoons in 7 Days (Mar 10-17, 2018)
Last day: draw caricature of friends live on camera
Progress will be shared through daily blog posts & podcasts. Come join me on the challenge! You'll know how to draw cartoons by the end of 7 days too :)
Challenge #2: Learn to Sketchnote in 7 Days (April 2-4 + April 15-19, 2018)
Last day: live sketchnote a Ted Talk
Challenge had to be broken down into 2 parts, because I have something else came up that would require my full attention, and then I want to take a couple of day off before diving back into the challenge :)
