Wrapping up 2022: The year in review

It's hard to believe that winter is here, and the new year is just around the corner. It feels like yesterday that the ShapingEDU Community was dreaming up ways to help learners and educators around the world.

Those dreams transformed into Calls to Action, Action Team Projects, and an abundance of outputs. Let's reflect on some of the exemplary work and moments of our ShapingEDU Community, shall we?

Happy fourth birthday, ShapingEDU!

ASU's ShapingEDU was founded in 2018, focused on three intertwined words of action: dreaming, doing and driving. Separately, they’re strong. In combination, they’re unstoppable. We must dream big, collaborate to bring our visions to life and nurture every seedling of success for the lifelong learners of now and tomorrow.

Life is complicated. At any given moment, a thousand things are happening which impact my life. An exponential number more will impact my life in the future. Most of these things are things you only have a vague awareness of, at best. Additionally, I manage systems in my body, from the infinite complexity of my mind, to the autonomic beating of my heart, to complex interactions between the three as my fingers dance across the keyboard to type these words.
