Self-D.I.Y. Modegree
In all of my years of creating content, there has been an anchor for me. That being the realm of self-education.
Just like the autodidacts of old, there are always going to be people who are self-learners. Not only is it human nature to be curious, but it is also the mark of a successful person to be a voracious learner.
In this modern age we have accumulated so much free knowledge and information on the internet. There is so much being uploaded every.single.day. that we cannot consume it all.
The worst problem beyond that is being able to organize all the stuff that we DO have time for in our lives. Whether it is a new hobby, a need for a quick skill acquisition for a job, or just continual lifelong learning. We have a need as a society to be able to package all of the necessary online materials together.
Hence why I created the Modular Degree framework, a do it yourself education system to create your own degree!

Take a Chance on a New Life
What I mean is that education can literally change your entire life. That is the reason why most people go to college in the first place, but as we have seen over the past two decades. Traditional degrees are being worth less and less. To the point now where even if you have a full 4-year Bachelors, some jobs still won’t even hire you.
What matters most to employers, or especially in the entrepreneurial realm, is the actual skills you have acquired. Beyond that more so the PEOPLE you know as well.
By choosing your own Self made DIY degree, then you have the power of choice over WHAT you learn. Not to mention from WHOM.

With the Rise of the Internet
There has been a significant rise in online coaches/teachers, with an even greater number of courses being released.
How do we systematically situate each course/book/podcast/etc, all in an order that is conducive to a great learning experience? Making sure you ACTUALLY learn.
Keeping your attention strong by incorporating things like interleaving, Pomodoro, and the Feynman Technique.
It would be a crime essentially to let all of this potential of learning to go to waste.

How the Modegree Solves those Issues
The power of modularity should not be underestimated, and more college students are reaching towards a more interdisciplinary learning experience. Combining both modularity and a polymathic mindset, then you can formulate your own Modular Degree.
You may start out with just one learning subject/topic, or perhaps two, but quickly your curiosity is bound to expand.
That is okay, and even encouraged in this framework. Taking your learning to new heights requires experimentation, and deciding whether or not a subject is actually keeping your attention. For example coding over the years has eluded me, but each time I try to learn it I learn a bit more.
Perhaps something you’ll pick up quickly, and other things need to be spread over the course of time. That modularity of TIME is one example of how you can take this system into your own way.
