This community is dedicated to educational resources for the modern autodidact, as well as discussion on self-teaching methods. Preferably, resources are of at least university quality, though they do not have to be university affiliated. This community is also meant to act as a centralized hub for other communities dedicated to learning a new subject or skill (see !opencourselectures@slrpnk.net).
Is there maybe a less technical term for this? It’s a good idea, but I think those that may benefit most from it may not necessarily think of themselves with this term.
It may seem like a small detail, but the name itself may serve to limit its reach to only a specific subset of those that teach themselves and seek to teach themselves/continue learning.
No, I think you’re absolutely right and I am open to suggestions.
On the other hand, there are other ways to improve discoverability. Most importantly, I think that looks like a direct relationship with other significant learning communities.
Self-Education (so, /c/selfeducation) seems the most literal alternative that comes to mind, but perhaps others can think of better?
