Learning Series

A Learning Series is a structured sequence of lessons or educational experiences designed to guide learners through a progressive understanding of a specific topic or skillset. Unlike traditional, rigid curricula, a Learning Series is modular, adaptable, and designed for real-world application, allowing individuals to engage at their own pace while developing deep, interconnected knowledge. A Learning Series is a flexible, modular unit of transformational, connection-centered education within the Pathfinder Delivery Framework. A Learning series typically consists of 5 to 12 interconnected lessons delivered in one-hour sessions to small groups (Learning Pods),

Notes

A Pathfinder Learning Series is build on a Four-Point Foundation (content is modern, grounded, accessible, and scalable), is supported by the Seven Pillars of Authentic learning, and follows Minimally Invasive Education principles, meaning, among other things, that

  • Lessons are learner-driven, emphasizing exploration, dialogue, and hands-on engagement rather than passive content consumption.
  • Assessment is mastery-based, focusing on growth, iteration, and real-world application rather than standardized testing.
  • Content is accessible and scalable, making it easy to translate, adapt, and apply across different cultural, social, and technological contexts.

The Role of Learning Series in the Pathfinder Model

  • Breaks Down Complex Topics – Learning Series are designed to deconstruct big ideas into accessible, interconnected lessons that promote critical thinking and real-world integration.
  • Encourages Self-Paced, Iterative Learning – Instead of rigid timetables, Learning Series allow individuals to progress at their own pace, revisiting lessons as needed to deepen understanding and refine skills.
  • Supports a Decentralized Learning Model – Learning Series can be delivered in Learning Pods, Learning Hubs, or self-directed study, making them flexible and scalable for different learning environments.
  • Aligns with Healing-Centered Pedagogy – Unlike Assembly Line Education, which focus on memorization and standardization, Learning Series are designed to empower, heal, reconnect, and enable learners to Fully Realize their full Human Potential.
