Why Huddle Up?

The "Why Huddle Up?" question is closely tied to "Why did we build Huddle Up?". And, it's a great place to start.

In short, we're tired of online learning models that consist of boring videos with an occasional quiz.That's outdated learning. It's not relevant or engaging. 

And, it's doing a disservice to any individual who has had to endure it... and the companies and schools that expect (and need) so much more. 



Unlike that model of learning, we created Huddle Up because we believe the best learning comes when

1. Learners are involved in trying to create and share solutions, not memorize facts

2. Learners actively give feedback to one another, to improve each user's solution.

3. Real learning is not demonstrated by what you know. It is demonstrated by what you can do with what you know - and how your application of knowledge is judged by others.


As educators ourselves, we sought to create a very different kind of learning platform that was set up to meet those needs.  In fact, it's so different, it's patented. Have a look and see what makes us so unique.



That's why we created Huddle Up.  

That's why we are driven by our mission: To transform online learning for individuals and organizations through a more purposeful, interactive experience.

That's why we like to say: When organizations want to engage individuals in finding solutions to an existing problem while leveraging the power or interactive feedback, they should Huddle Up.

We look forward to learning what we can build, together.

AI & Organizational Learning - a different approach

Consider this post an invitation to engage for every AI expert seeking to transform the way teams and organizations learn. We consider ourselves AI enthusiasts, but not experts - and we are in need of advice and support from those higher up the ladder. These days, organizational learning is a pretty dynamic space. Everyone's abuzz with AI - and for good reason. Every day, it's linking content and context in fantastic new ways. The content has always been there.  It's the context piece that makes AI so exciting - and also its biggest challenge. How can we get AI to become ever more intelligent about "our" context? How can AI help generate solutions and feedback that are contextualized to what "we" need?   To transform learning with AI, most people are seeking to answer the following question: How can we leverage AI to capture all the relevant data in our learning ecosystem?   We're asking a different question. How can we reimagine the learning eco...

The Evolution of Online Learning: Four Stages and What's Next?

(This 2022 post was modified in July 2023.) The pandemic has made everyone far more knowledgeable about online learning platforms than they were 24 months ago. We each know (and feel) the strengths and the limitations of more than a few platforms.  We each have a long and growing list of features we want to see in the next evolution of online learning.  So, it seems a rather good time to step back and explore the evolution of online learning - to see how far we've come, and where we might be heading. One of the best resources out there is a simple progression chart shared in this intriguing article by Tiago Forte. The Future of Education is Community: The Rise of Cohort-Based Courses The evolution of online learning: What's next? We love big-picture reflections like this. While we are all aware of the current disconnect that still exists between the reality of our online learning platforms and the skills and knowledge we want to transfer to learners, we can all agree that the ...
