The personalized digital school for individual learning
School of the future is digital and accessible from anywhere.
Curriculum is personalized based on standards, individual needs and talents.
1. The Problem
School curricula follow general standards although students have diverse needs, strengths and weaknesses in learning.
In developing countries Kids have sometimes long walks to take to attend School.
Even in developed countries not all School have teachers to e.g. teach economics, computer sciences etc.
In addition girls in some developing countries are not always allowed to attend School when growing older. I hope to change that by giving them accepted opportunties to continue learning.
2. The solution
After Primary (4 years) capabilities and talents of individual students can be identified. Students will get a standard curriculum provided either online or in classroom trainings. In addition personalized classes can be attended on individual needs. This could be managed either by general home schooling, part time schooling or in full attendance. Teachers can teach their Curriculum they are trained for and perform surveillance Tasks for the individual learning sessions. (Requirement: Internet Access,small Computer/Laptop)
In some countries teacher have to teach multiple years in one classroom. What if teachers could focus on the Needs of their students per class year while others are perfoming their online trainings
3. How will the solution change the world.
Imagine edX Moocs enabled for young students. Making education accessible for Kids who want to perform irrespectively of their place of birth or financial capabilities of their parents.
Moocs are separated into individual assignments. Student behavior is recorded and adaptive in Terms of learning Speed, allowing a talented kid learning e.g. at twice the speed a topic compared to regular students. Underperformance in schools would be limited in future as courses adapt to individual learning speed. This will lower the stress situations for students.
Imagine a future, where everybody loves maths or languages because students learn at their own Speed and do not have to resignate.
What if we could develop the engineers of the future directly in the countries where they are needed most?
Millions of humans leave their countries dreaming to offer at least a better future for their Kids. Bringing education close to the place of birth will help people develop better opportunities for their future.
- Supportive ecosystems for educators
- Personalized teaching, especially in disadvantaged communities
Teaching Kids has not changed that much since the 70's. Although media has improved significantly the curriculars are limited to local teacher experiences and classroom Trainings. The proposed solution will make use of individual learning capabilities and allows to detect deficiencies early in time.
The Technology of MOOCs is availalbe (e.g. edX).
AI capabilities to detect Patterns of learning capabilities has to be developed. (We expect this to be done "on the Job" once data is generated).
I would like to pitch the concept at UN - It could be one of the ideas to reduce Migration movements if learning at your place of origin becomes a human right.
We want to develop courses for students of different grades (e.g. maths) to get first Feedbacks about learning Progress.
The Investments compared to the results will be negligible. Still: Funding for this new type of schooling has to be acquired.
In Addition we collaborate with NGOs in Kenia to establish the technical infrastructure for online learning opportunities. We have already some contacts with NGOs on a different Topic.
A blockchain based micro donation System will help to scale fast and trustful on a global Level to ensure building up necessary infrastructure in countries with high Migration rates and low education Levels.

- Non-binary
- Urban
- Rural
- Lower
- Sub-Saharan Africa
We are currently building a blockchain based donation system in Kenia. We would liketo take the opportunity to develop this individualized online course opportunity to make it part of School Curricula.
At the Moment this is an idea and not developed yet.
2 Schools in 12 months (20 courses developed)
200 Schools in 36 months (100 courses developed)
20000 Schools in 60 months (500 individual courses developed)
- Non-Profit
- 1
- Less than 1 year
Due to a separate project we have Connections to NGOs and local supporters in Kenia. Still the Team for this idea is only me at the moment.
Development of courses still requires skills.
Why we can make an Impact? We started with an idea, and our decication is what is driving us. I am not asking for a bunch of Money.
The visibility of SOLVE would help me to get Attention to get a community helping to build courses (in a Wikipedia Kind of way => all has to be transparent).
Revenuemodel is Non-Profit organization.
Still run cost need to be managed. This will be handled through a max 1.5% handling fee of donations.
Once successful we expect to get governmental support.
In Addition we expect to be able to sell anonymous behavioral data of users (e.g. to connect corporations with skilled students)
Solve can help me gainig visibility.
I want to build a communnity of Content creators who donate their knowledge to build courses.
Key barriers could be politics to allow online courses becoming part of a national Curriculum.
Clarification needed how These courses could (if individually set up) have comparable metrics to allow assessment of students personal skills and capabilities.
Solve could help me getting a better understanding of the potential of this idea.
