I love that people are finding ways to embrace their curiosity and make learning fun! I'm going to build a curriculum to improve my art skills

I really enjoyed reading your post. You give lots of good reasons why the personal curriculum trend is so motivating to people.

I work in higher ed as an educational developer, and I'm really interested in how these personal curriculum plans are being organized by curious learners. Do you mind if I include this postin a mini, informal analysis project I'm working on? I'm interested in studying posts about personal curricula to see what the common themes are, the process, etc. All with the goal of sharing back what I learned here on Substack :)

I really like how you’ve laid out how to decide what interests to base a personal curriculum on. It actually inspires me to help guide my homeschooled children to do so for their own education.
