Crowdlearning

The idea of crowdlearning or collective learning concerns the proposal to build knowledge collectively for the service of people. The idea is that two or more people get together to discuss or solve a given problem, understand a given concept collaboratively, share their findings publicly and available to be tested, discussed, and, eventually, rethought by other people and groups.

Also called “crowdsourced learning” or learning via collective sources, in literal translation from English, collective learning strengthens the premise that knowledge must be perceived as a cumulative construction of humanity.

Crowdlearning: collaborative technology characteristic of Samsung Solve for Tomorrow

By its nature, collective learning can take place anywhere, in formal or informal educational processes or research groups, information production, and problem-solving, and it benefits from information and communication tools and technologies that favor more dynamic encounters, agility, and ease of public systematization of production.

In Samsung Solve for Tomorrow, groups of students build information collectively and collaboratively not only among themselves but at school, in their communities, and among the different participants in the program. Everyone (young people, teachers, mentors, and supporters) is invited to form an ecosystem of exchanges, learning, and the collective construction of knowledge.
