Plexlearning Placed-based Development
The Education for Development and Support Network (EDSN) is a Plexlearning association. It is an organization of place-based Research-to-Practice collaborators dedicated to advancing meaningful and sustainable quality of life through community engagement and experiential learning.
PlexLearning empowers groups of individuals to co-learn and act collaboratively with other autonomous technological agents in perceiving, interpreting, and responding to life’s opportunities and challenges. It extends beyond schooling to education -- a purposeful sense of being framed by curiosity, the politics of knowledge, and continuous learning about life itself.
EDSN leverages trusted relationships, sponsored research, and social financing to advance local innovation, capacity building, and socioeconomic empowerment. It facilitates organizational self-study, quality control, risk management, and an external peer-review process among participating groups.
Welcome to Life and of being in the EDSN ...
Be purposefully mindful, fiscally creative, and curiously engaged ...
Live peacefully and respectfully in cohabiting the Earth with your neighbors ...
Co-learning, co-living, and co-creating with Gaia -- Earth, currently the only known inhabitable planet.
Programs for Motivated Groups of Individuals
EDSN develops AI-powered experiential programs for motivated groups of individuals who seek to navigate the politics of acquiring and applying desired knowledge. These programs remove barriers and fill critical gaps in building sustainable socioeconomic bridges that lead to desirable quality-of-life, careers and thriving neighborhood communities.
Our Plexlearning programs foster long-term Open access ecosystems for quality-of-life solutions. They seamlessly integrate formal education and informal learning with life. These cost-sharing solutions include entrepreneurship incubators, workforce retooling, technical certifications, career management, socioeconomic scaffoldings, place-based fellowships, and lifestyle-vocations that empower participants to continuously learn, share, and adopt.
Ultimately, EDSN's AI-powered programs and services combine the strengths of human and non-human technological agents to advance caring communities of continuous learning and sharing. The EDSN ecosystems offer groups of individuals far greater opportunities to achieve sustainable and fulfilling lifestyle than would be possible alone.
