Siminars: Design Fun & Interactive Learning Experiences
Learning isn't meant to happen with a chalkboard and a lecture. It's supposed to be an organic experience. Learning should be exciting, and dare we say it --- fun. Most learning systems we use have taken the rewarding part of personal development out of the equation and replaced it with semesters, grades, and number two pencils. It's time to inject creativity and engagement back into the learning process, and we want to do this by putting the student at the center of the experience.
At Siminars we believe learning is most powerful when it is treated as a journey. We've built a platform that helps create a rewarding, social, and engaging journey for teachers to create for their audience.
THE MAP
1) Siminars is a destination site for interactive learning experiences
2) Log on to our portal on your computer or your phone and become a member of Siminars. It’s FREE to sign up, and many individual Siminars are free.
3) Sign up for virtual journeys through a wide-range of topics guided by world-class experts. Enjoy learning the way it’s supposed to be: interactive and fun.
4) Help your friends on their personal development journeys (and get free access to premium content on Siminars) by inviting your friends to join you on Siminars.
5) Facebook, Email, Twitter, LinkedIn
6) Within the tool, one can share any to do item (video, blog, quiz, poll) using social media or email to a friend. Each Siminar can be designed with inherent virality in the form of questions, polls, or other forms of media that make a person think about a friend and want to share.
