How People Learn
A foundational study of learning science: how prior knowledge, motivation, context, feedback, and transfer shape what learners can do with new ideas.

A year of learning design, AI literacy, systems change, and venture/product practice across Harvard and MIT, organized around the capabilities I want to keep building in EdTech and people-centered products.
This is not a transcript page. It is a portfolio map of the coursework that shaped my product judgment: how people learn, how institutions change, how AI systems should be evaluated, and how ideas become pilots, products, and organizations.
A foundation in how people learn, how learning environments are designed, and how instructional systems become more inclusive and useful.
A foundational study of learning science: how prior knowledge, motivation, context, feedback, and transfer shape what learners can do with new ideas.
A design-centered course focused on building learning experiences that account for learner variability, accessibility, equity, and multiple pathways into understanding.
A practice-oriented look at designing learning with others: collaboration routines, shared artifacts, facilitation, and the social conditions that help groups learn.
The LDIT core project experience, connecting design process, stakeholder discovery, prototyping, and impact-oriented decision making.
A studio practicum connecting learning theory with real institutional design work through Harvard Teaching and Learning Lab projects.
Courses that moved from AI literacy into product judgment: when to use AI, how to evaluate impact, and how to make prototypes legible to real users.
A course on developing practical AI literacy: understanding capabilities, limits, risks, and the design choices required to use AI responsibly in learning contexts.
A hands-on Media Lab venture studio on finding, evaluating, and building high-impact AI-first companies. My public artifacts from the semester are best shown here as course work: EchoBridge, Knowledge Arena, and Bukti.
Course framing verified from the public AI Studio / AI for Impact site.
A capstone prototype exploring adaptive scaffolding, checks for understanding, and learnersourced vocabulary for a Harvard data fluency initiative.
Entrepreneurial coursework that sharpened how technical ideas become products, pilots, revenue motions, and durable organizations.
A seminar on building organizations around transformative technologies, using historical examples, live case studies, technical strategy, and venture prototyping.
Description summarized from the MIT subject catalog.
A go-to-market course for technology startups covering how to identify, build, execute, measure, and scale sales motions and revenue processes.
Description summarized from the MIT subject catalog.
A short applied course focused on moving an education idea toward a pilot: clarifying the user, testing assumptions, and preparing a concept for field feedback.
A people-systems thread across change leadership, organizational design, work futures, and the politics of institutional transformation.
A foundations course on leading change in education organizations: diagnosing systems, communicating across stakeholders, and moving from intent to adoption.
A policy and leadership course on how work is changing across institutions, with attention to power, organizational practice, technology, and labor-market shifts.
A systems-leadership course focused on how education leaders diagnose complexity, build coalitions, and move institutions through change.
The through-line is applied learning product work: understanding learners and organizations before jumping to a solution, using AI where it genuinely improves scaffolding or decision-making, and making prototypes concrete enough for stakeholders to critique. That mix is the bridge between my product interests, EdTech training, and people-operations background.
