Today Curious is celebrating our first year of public life--our birthday, so to speak. Curious launched on May 1st, 2013 with the hope that there were other people in the world like us. People who loved to learn things, and who felt learning could be just as fun as watching a movie or playing a video game. Plus we were pretty sure thousands of amazing teachers would be eager to reach the world's lifelong learners.
Well, I guess we were right.
In one short year over 1000 teachers have joined the Curious revolution, and produced over 6000 lessons so far--with hundreds more added every week.
Those lessons have already been viewed over 2 million times. We get to watch the vibrant community of Curious learners and teachers blossoming more every day--and it feels really great. It's those teachers and learners that are why we have had such a successful year, and why I'm pretty confident there are a lot of birthday celebrations in our future.
To all of you who have believed in the Curious way of lifelong learning--THANK YOU! Or should I say, happy birthday? Think of it as the first year of the rest of your life of learning.
