Bendable Maine Digest
A monthly update on the lifelong learning system being shaped by Mainers for Mainers
What's New?

The holiday season has wrapped, and the Bendable team has jumped into January with a dynamic plan to get out the word about our lifelong learning system before it launches next summer.

We will soon begin hosting the Bendable Power Hour, a virtual opportunity to engage eager learners, promote the Bendable mission and brand, garner valuable design feedback and beat the winter blues.

In the coming weeks, we will announce a series of online lectures and workshops covering a variety of topics. Each will be taught by Mainers for Mainers.

The Bendable Power Hour will also be a way to begin developing Community Collections—personal learning playlists in which Maine residents share resources—books, podcasts, TED Talks and so on—on subjects in which they have deep personal knowledge or professional expertise. (You can see examples of Community Collections from Bendable in South Bend, Indiana, by clicking here.) If you’d like to nominate yourself or someone you know for a Community Collection, it’s not too soon! Just reach out to [email protected].

Meanwhile, watch for details on the Bendable Power Hour on the Maine State Library website and Twitter feed.
