This class aims to give students the tools and motivation to go and learn whatever they want to in their own time. Students have a lifetime of learning ahead of them. If they can develop an internal motivation to learn now, then it will pay dividends forever.

This will include the following: how to find information online and how to get access to experts when the information is not...

I've been a self-directed learner for a long time. While I was a product manager at Uber and a student at Penn, I was always searching for startup ideas. I explored everything from building new form factors for reading to property management. I balanced school and work with this exploration, and eventually got funded by Y Combinator and General Catalyst. As a high schooler, I took 5 extra Cambridge A-levels by studying them on my own. This was externally motivated (I was trying to get into a good college), but it crystallized for me from an early age that learning on your own can be super effective.
