FractalU: How a Living Room Became a School

FractalU started as a group of friends taking an online AI course together in someone's living room. This evolved into a thriving community school with dozens of instructors and hundreds of students. The secret? Low overhead, a focus on social learning, and high-quality courses. FractalU isn't a formal organization; it's a coordinated effort run by a small volunteer team. Most instructors have day jobs, teaching because they're passionate about their subjects and building community. FractalU's growth demonstrates the power of social learning and the appeal of integrating learning into everyday life.
