Ep. 430 w/ Michael Staton CEO of CoLearn
Even before #COVID19 and the Remote Learning crises, the Learn team and I were working to develop better tools for parents to discover, curate, and manage extraordinary experiences for their families.
Now with #COVID and #PandemicPods, we're giving parents the tools to organize their families in their pursuit of extraordinary learning.
Michael Staton is a lifelong educator, colearner, and entrepreneur. Beginning as a public school teacher, Michael redesigned his classroom around getting typical high-school students ready for the academic rigors of college. Now a Partner at Learn Capital, he spent over a decade as an education entrepreneur and investor, backing innovators like Coursera, Outschool, Photomath, MakeSchool, Minerva, Clever, and NearPod. He was also helpful to the founding of Million Lives Fund, Reach Capital, Higher Ed Live, UnCollege, YearOn and Dev Bootcamp. He was co-founder and CEO of Uversity, which changed the way colleges do admissions and enrollment management.
