Amazing learning platform - I finished two courses trough sutra and one of our partner Organisation has implemented it. They are really happy with the outcomes and the ability to connect and activate their community

@steffen_stauber1 Thank you for sharing your experience and your support! We're thrilled to hear about your success and the positive impact on your partner organization. πβ¨
@steffen_stauber1 Hey thanks for sharing your experience with Sutra. We have quite a few organizations who run courses and then follow up by creating an membership community on Sutra as well. That's what's so cool about the platform, is that it can be used in so many different use cases. Thanks for being here and supporting us as well!
@mikhail_sidakov ya, the live cohort learning space has gotten particularly competitive since COVID. But we figure there's been virtually no innovation in the self paced course space. And there's a lot of room for improvement. So we're hopeful we can make a dent :-)
@mikhail_sidakov@lorenzsell yes it is super competitive and we're optimizing for more meaningful connection and conversation amongst the participants and there is a huge opening for us to address the many issues with self paced courses. Thanks for you support Mikhail. Curious about your experience with online programs, what worked, what didn't for you?
@gudrun_hrefna_gudmundsdottir ya, we're hopeful that a focus on meaningful conversation and connection make a difference with engagement and completion.
@gudrun_hrefna_gudmundsdottir thank you for your support. In your experience what could have made the learning commitment easier for you to stay engaged and complete a program online?
Congratulations on the launch @lorenzsell and team! I used to struggle a lot completing courses on udemy or coursera, and wished that there was a proactive way to learning like you have created with Sutra! Also, what a divine name for the product!
@aniruddha_j Thank you so much! Yes, I had the same experience on both of those platforms and hence our innovation here with Sutra. We picked that name because it means "thread of knowledge" and we see it as weaving threads of collective wisdom to enrich any learning experience.
This sounds like a fantastic innovation, Lorenz! The challenges you've highlighted with traditional online courses are so real, and Sutra seems to be addressing them perfectly. The integration of AI to facilitate conversations and enhance peer-to-peer connections is a total game changer for online learning. I love the interactive approach with discussion prompts that unlock content. This not only boosts engagement but also fosters a sense of community among learners, which has been missing in many courses. Excited to see where this goes! Definitely upvoting! π
You're right. I have purchased many online courses, but most of them haven't been 100% completed. Interactive learning experiences are very interesting! Besides guided learning, I think mutual supervision in the community is also a solution. I'll try to see if Sutra can improve my learning progress. Congrats!
@natashasell congrats on your PH launchπ
Conversational Courses totally makes sense. I much more prefer to learn with a group of peers where we can share ideas and experiences.
So is Sutra a product for learners or for creators who have some content to share?
@natashasell@umar_lateef Well, in many ways it's for both. But as a platform we provide a tool for content creators to share their content in a conversational way.
Most self paced courses revolve around content creators sharing their knowledge in a one directional way. There's no opportunity to participants to connect with each other or build some sense of shared understanding. We're hopeful this is a new channel for creators to deliver learning experiences that invite their learners to truly learn together.
As we attract more content creators, we hope we'll have an ecosystem where learners can come to find more experiences that emphasize meaningful connection and conversation.
@umar_lateef yeah, I would say it's a tool for content creators who can use Sutra to design really engaging experiences for their audience. And as Lorenz shared, the more Sutra grows, the more courses there will be available on Sutra for learnings to choose from.
