Duolingo's primary mission is to provide equal access to education for everyone, leveraging the widespread availability of smartphones

Duolingo started with foreign languages because of the high demand and the direct financial benefits of learning a new language, especially English

Focus on language learning

Duolingo uses a freemium model, allowing users to learn for free, with the option to pay for a subscription to remove ads. This model leads to a small form of wealth redistribution, where users in wealthier countries subsidize education for those in poorer countries

Freemium Model

The challenge of delivering education via smartphones, which are also used for addictive apps, like social media and mobile games is addressed by making learning engaging

Making "Broccoli Taste Like Dessert"

Duolingo employs psychological techniques similar to those used by addictive apps to keep users engaged. Examples include:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Streaks: A counter that tracks consecutive days of use, motivating users to return daily</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Notifications: A sophisticated AI system determines when and what to send in notifications to encourage users to return. Even passive-aggressive notifications can be efective</li></ul>

Gamification

Duolingo uses a green owl mascot in its notifications, which has become a subject of internet memes, further embedding Duolingo in popular culture

Mascot

While Duolingo may not be as engaging as apps like TikTok or Instagram, the meaning users derive from learning provides additional motivation

Meaning vs Engagement

Duolingo has a significant reach, with more people learning languages on the app in the U.S. than in all U.S. high schools combined

Reach

Luis hopes to apply Duolingo's approach to other subjects like math and physics, to make screen time a beneficial activity

Future Goals

Subjects learned through repetition can be gamified in the style of Duolingo

Luis von Ahn explains how Duolingo harnesses the psychological techniques of social media and mobile games to get you excited to learn — all while spreading access to education across the world.

When technologist Luis von Ahn was building the popular language-learning platform Duolingo, he faced a big problem: Could an app designed to teach you something ever compete with addictive platforms like Instagram and TikTok? He explains how Duolingo harnesses the psychological techniques of social media and mobile games to get you excited to learn — all while spreading access to education across the world.

How to Make Learning as Addictive as Social Media | Luis Von Ahn | TED

This post discusses how minimalism can support a zero-waste lifestyle. It suggests six ways to change consumption habits to support sustainability life.source: https://www.hellobrio.com/blog/minimalism-zero-waste

Intro

Subscribing to content and receiving news instantly may seem convenient, but you can end up with a cluttered inbox. Avoid unnecessary content by unsubscribing from junk mail and marketing emails.

1. Unsubscribe

Continue using items until they can no longer serve their purpose. Do you really need a new towel just because the old one are not so white or so fluffy anymore?

2. Hang in there with your old items

Repair and clean items to make them last longer and reduce the needs for replacements.

3. Repair and clean

Repurpose items to give them new use and keep them out of the landfills.

4. Repurpose

Instead of throwing away broken items, consider buying parts and repairing them. It's a cost-effective solution and will give you a sense of accomplishment by making the item usable again.

5. Buy parts and fix

Buying cheaper goods may feel more "cheap", but in the long run, you sometimes spend more repairing or replacing them. Buy fewer items, but of higher quality, to reduce waste and costs in the long run.

6. Buy Less (and Higher Quality)

Minimalism is a lifestyle that emphasizes simplicity and intentional living. It involves decluttering physical possessions, focusing on what truly matters, and reducing waste. By doing so, minimalists create more space for meaningful experiences and contribute to a sustainable environment. 🌿🌱

Gita Wirjawan: Semakin Bisa Berkomunikasi, Semakin Bisa Meningkatkan Produktivitas di Masa Depan

Inspiration from Gita Wirjawan talks

AI has the potential to revolutionize education, making it more personalized, engaging, and effective.TED talk of Sal Khan

How AI Could Enhance Education

AI can be used to track student progress and identify areas where they need additional support. This information can then be used to create personalized learning plans for each student.

Personalized learning

AI can be used to create more engaging and interactive learning experiences. For example, AI-powered chatbots can answer students' questions, provide feedback, and even help students learn new concepts.

Engaging and interactive learning experiences

AI can be used to provide personalized feedback to students. This feedback can be tailored to each student's individual needs and learning style.

Personalized feedback

AI can be used to automate tasks that are currently performed by teachers. This frees up teachers to focus on more creative and strategic work, such as developing new curriculum and teaching methods.

Automating tasks

"AI can be used to enhance human intelligence, human potential, and human purpose."-Sal Khan

AI can be used to revolutionize education and make it more accessible and effective for everyone. While there are certainly some challenges that need to be addressed.

Sal Khan, the founder and CEO of Khan Academy, thinks artificial intelligence could spark the greatest positive transformation education has ever seen. He shares the opportunities he sees for students and educators to collaborate with AI tools -- including the potential of a personal AI tutor for every student and an AI teaching assistant for every teacher -- and demos some exciting new features for their educational chatbot, Khanmigo.

How AI Could Save (Not Destroy) Education | Sal Khan | TED

Belajar untuk beradaptasi dengan dunia yang tidak dapat diprediksi dan selalu berubah adalah salah satu hadiah terbaik yang dapat Kita berikan kepada anak-anak. Dengan mengajarkan anak-anak untuk mencintai belajar, kita mengajarkan mereka untuk menjadi fleksibel, terbuka, dan adaptif.

Mengapa Kita Harus Mengajarkan Anak "Bagaimana Mempelajari" daripada "Apa yang Dipelajari"

“I’ll never let my schooling interfere with my education.”-Mark Twain

Anak-anak saat ini mengalami sistem pendidikan yang sebagian besar mengajarkan keterampilan berdasarkan permintaan pekerjaan pada tahun 1980-an, bukan yang paling relevan saat ini atau yang mungkin diperlukan pada tahun 2030. Namun, pekerjaan telah bergeser dari sektor manufaktur ke sektor jasa dan sekarang sebagian besar terkait dengan teknologi.

Sistem dan mindset pendidikan yang usang

Dengan mengajarkan anak-anak untuk mencintai belajar, Kita mengajarkan mereka untuk menjadi fleksibel, terbuka, dan adaptif. Membantu mereka menjadi pemecah masalah yang terampil dan mempersiapkan mereka dengan baik untuk menghadapi tantangan dunia yang tidak dapat diprediksi dan selalu berubah.

Beberapa saran praktis untuk mengajarkan anak-anak bagaimana cara belajar :<ol><li>Jadikan belajar menjadi kegiatan yang menyenangkan, gunakan tema atau kegiatan yang mereka sukai.</li><li>Tekankan bahwa upaya yang dilakukan lebih penting dari bakat yang dimiliki.</li><li>Gunakan instruksi dan panduan yang jelas, biasakan mereka memahami instruksi dengan baik sebelum memulai tugas.</li><li>Berikan alasan yang tepat untuk belajar, apa relevansinya dengan kehidupan yang dijalani.</li><li>Asah keterampilan "problem solving" anak.</li><li>Apresiasi kemajuan atau progress anak.</li><li>Berikan contoh, teladan, role model.</li></ol>
