Let's talk about delivering student transformations at scale

How do you ensure 150-200 students all experience a transformation in your online course?

6 things to focus on👇
🔰 Nail your transformation

Before you can do ANYTHING, make sure you get this right

Who are you transforming?

Where are they now?

What will they be able to do differently after your course?

🔰 Beginner's Mind

Once you have the journey of A to B from the previous step, reverse engineer every step of the way

Use a Beginner's Mind to ensure you don't make any leaps of understanding your green students won't be able to make right away

🔰 Off-Topic Interest Lounges

Let me tell you a little story
In 2005, two college roommates Alexis and Steve attended a lecture by @paulg

Graham invited them to apply to @ycombinator with their idea of ordering food by text message

It bombed
But Graham liked the two guys and during a subsequent brainstorming session an idea was formed to create a website Graham called, the “front page of the internet.”

I had the privilege over the last 4 weeks of working with @AliAbdaal and his team

With the help of 5 amazing peer supporters, we created a support system for students of his Part-Time YouTuber Academy course

Here is what I learned
1/ None of this is possible without amazing humans

Ali is a gifted teacher

He also had 4 amazing humans helping him

@lizfilips
@zoocster
@apmparker
@CharlotCrowther

You don't create transformations for ~400 students without the incredible efforts of a passionate team
2/ It takes a village

Then he added the peer supporters

@JustBhavs
@m_ashcroft
@ArcherNewton_
@yathprem
@joegannon22

Every one different

Every one a rockstar

Every one going out there way to help YouTubers wherever they are on their journey

Transformational Courses Update!

Been struggling with how to make my online course transformational

My problem is a long feedback loop for course creator students

As a student, you won't see the results until you've finished your next cohort

Here's how I'm solving this 👇
How do I deliver a transformational experience in only 5 weeks?

Introducing 🔰The Curious Lion Learning Week 🔰

This will be the capstone event of the course
In 4 weeks, every student in my course will learn the necessary skills to create a course or improve an existing one - preferably a cohort-based one of their own

But the project they'll work on to learn these skills will be a 60-min workshop to showcase their content
