Habi Hour

Just like a pair of shoes, learning experiences aren't one size fits all! In fact, there are a handful of factors you have to think about when designing one. Along with Learning Experience Designers Kaye, Gerson and Ruth, we explore the design principle of “Kasya Lahat” or inclusivity in this Habi Hour episode, and what we have to learn (and unlearn!) so our learners all feel like they're part of the experience. Do you have any questions or insights about this design principle? Send us a voice memo at kumusta@habieducationlab.org, and we may just feature you in one of our episodes! - - This trailer was written and produced by Habi Education Lab.

What does “clear” or “malinaw” mean to you?  For the first episode of the Habi Hour Season 4, we discuss our first design principle, “malinaw”, or clear.

From abruptly changing to a digital set-up, offices and schools are now switching back to “normal”. The question is: What if we didn't go back to normal and instead found a better way forward? For the fourth season of Habi Hour, we take a deep dive at our design principles, and the practices we've done during the pandemic that helped us in building better learning experiences now that we transition into the new normal. - - This trailer was written and produced by Habi Education Lab.

With the upcoming national elections in the Philippines, all of us have, one way or another, found ourselves in interesting conversations - perhaps some heated ones, and hopefully some healthy ones too.
