    Johan asked this question on LinkedIn: I get it, competence is the goal and what makes you able to do whatever you want with a productive result. And obviously we don't want people with an inflated confidence as colleges or leaders. But aren't we throwing away confidence a bit too easily? I explore this question, digging into some academic research to see what confidence and competence might mean for learning designers, trainers, and teachers.

    Nick asked: "Re: Novel and engaging learning experiences that help overcome the need for spaced repetition. What is a novel and engaging learning experience? So that we know we have designed one." I researched the origins of spaced repetition and looked at the importance of stress in a learning experience. We discuss those findings and what they mean for learning designers and corporate learning.

    Despondent at how little citizens’ voices were being heard and how little impact the average person could have in the way society was being run, an Australian entrepreneur by the name of Adam Jacoby decided to stop moaning on Twitter and start doing something about it. The result is MiVote, a voting platform, information platform, and political movement set on increasing the degree to which the will of people is being heard in Australian politics. Inspired by the success of Pia Mancini’s DemocracyOS and Partido De La Red in Argentina, MiVote has built a platform which was recently awarded the Grand Global Challenge Award at the Singularity University’s Global Innovation Summit (founded by the infamous Ray Kurzweil).

The result was a constitution accepted by almost 70% of the nation and deemed by many to be ‘enlightened’. Unfortunately the result was also an odd and obvious example of political gaming as the constitution was halted. But with new elections coming up, it seems the world’s first crowdsourced constitution could well be about to be made official. I was lucky enough to interview the ‘CTO’ of this project and unpicked the process, trying to extract the principles and elements which could provide us with some tips and tricks for what the future of governance could look like. **Our
