SkillCircles

SkillCircles is our playground where we learn directly from end users. We are currently creating courses in the arts because it's an area where we see people going into both to learn and socialize.

Our courses sell for around $200 while others courses with peer-learning sell for $1000 to $15.000.


Plugins

There's a Github project on this. Circle plugins are an open source project and belong to us all. They are MIT licensed.


FAQ:

Is circles app used anywhere?

Circles was first adopted at scale by NYU's Prof. Damodaran in late 2022. Now, it's reshaping educational practices for esteemed institutions such as Fundación País Digital in Chile. How can circles app work for me?

Circles app is both for institutions and individual instructors. Email me, sebastian@circleslearning.org. We are looking for contracts and sponsorships to improve various aspects of the platform.


How is circles better than Canvas and other Learning Management Systems?

1. Canvas is like Photoshop. It's pretty cool, allowing you to build courses in any shape or form you'd like. Unfortunately, there's so many tools and tricks that instructors once and again revert to the (not so good) old ways of lecturing and forums. In contrast, circles app is opinionated, leading instructors down a single path that ensures great pedagogy.
2. Canvas cannot be self managed by students so courses with peer-to-peer learning and group discussions rely on heavy support from instructors, making them expensive to run.
