Gravitate to host U.Lab hub to transform business, society, and self

Geoff's note: The post below is from Lucas Freed, a local UX and creative professional who had the idea to bring the U.Lab Hub to Gravitate and will be facilitating locally.

If you’re interested in transforming your business, your society, or yourself—read on. There is a six week #MOOC (massive online open course) that begins on September 10th called U.Lab. It is called ‘massive’ because already there are over 10,000 people enrolled across the world! U.Lab is offered via the edX platform and is offered by MIT in partnership with the Presencing Institute. Oh yeah, and the best part is there is NO COST

What is U.Lab?

U.Lab is a class that teaches students how to move from ego-centric to eco-centric by using a concept called Theory U. This method was developed by Dr. Otto Schramer, senior lecturer at MIT and instructor of the U.Lab course.
