I’ve been seeing the same ideas floating around and this is giving me the motivation to really dig into what I want to learn about. Thank you for your words!
This inspires me to create my own! I’ve been thinking about using this to uplevel my industry knowledge and attend more events in NYC to get inspired for my work.
I’m obsessed with this and one of the things I’ve always loved about being a librarian is that there are SO MANY resources at your fingertips outside of an academic institution.
I really enjoyed reading about the various media and hands-on learning you have planed for yourself.
I work in higher ed as an educational developer, and I'm really interested in how personal curriculum plans are being organized by curious learners. Do you mind if I include this post in a mini, informal analysis project I'm working on? I'm interested in studying posts about personal curricula to see what the common themes are, the process of development, and so on. All with the goal of sharing back what I learned here on Substack :)
This reminds me of a recent Youtube video by Cinzia (ladyofthelibrary) that I watched: Reading Simone Weil in the Age of TikTok! It’s not exactly about building a curriculum but it does talk about that our NEED to learn! Love it. I also am trying to build a curriculum for myself.. my only challenge is following through with it 🥲
this has officially motivated me to make my own curriculum!! i love that yours connects to events in nyc
ahh this makes my heart sing!! 🥹
Same here, it’s so fun seeing what pairs together across media/literature etc
love the monthly creative curriculum!! intellectual curiosity is so important!!
curiosity 4 ever 🫶🏻
I also came across Elizabeth’s monthly curriculum TikToks and found her a true inspiration! 🧡
she's incredible!! i love how her videos resonate with so many of us 🥰
I do a monthly syllabus if anyone is interested! A little more narrowly focused around a topic or question since I usually don’t have time for much more, but I always feel so accomplished when I finish the reading list I’ve assigned to myself - https://open.substack.com/pub/theliterarymatchmaker/p/august-2025-syllabus-free-will-is?r=58674&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Bravo for tailoring (differentiating) your curriculum to suit your learning and processing style and inspiring others along the way.

oh my gosh — i'm thrilled this inspired you! thank you so much for reading and commenting 🥰
Genius! I kind of do this already but labeling it as a curriculum makes it so much more FUN! 🤩
YES! There's something about naming the practice that adds a little whimsy 🥰
Obsessed with this idea, and with your Substack as a whole. Can't wait to keep following along!
This means the world, you have no idea!! Thank you for reading and commenting 🥰
