Greg Twemlow's Medium article proposes Agency-Powered Lifelong Learning© (APLL), a new education model that replaces traditional age-based structures with a flexible, competency-based system. APLL emphasizes student agency, allowing individuals to learn at their own pace and pursue their interests throughout their lives. AI plays a crucial role, personalizing learning paths and providing support. The model aims to create a more inclusive, adaptable, and human-centered approach to education, removing arbitrary barriers and fostering continuous growth.
