What is a Grassroots Education?
- Grassroots Learning is a creative lifestyle focused on social development & the constant sharing of skills & knowledge.
- Member groups manage educational workshops called "Lesson Tracks". They earn Aptitude points from their published cultivation of community skills.
- Social learning points are connected to a team-oriented incentive network that explores the full potential of community members.

Why would Grassroots Learning succeed?
- Lesson Workshops develop local learning initiatives while organizing team efforts around the immediate needs of the community.
- Teams must prove their progressive aptitude by keeping a portfolio record of project experiences and shared lessons.
- This system is designed around efficiently conserving time, effort and financial resources for maximum effect with minimal waste.

What are Specialty Skill Aptitudes?

- Lesson admins earn each point by managing a learning Event with enough ranked participants to qualify for a single point upgrade.

What are Spelling Days?
- Each Specialty Skill ("Spell") category and Mission Medal is grouped under a classification system using days of the week from Monday to Saturday.
- This framework is inspired by the MLX story project and it reflects the cyclical nature of our learning method. The "Sunday" category is reserved for administrative tasks.

What are Mission Medals?
- Medals are awarded to Lesson admins for achieving a collection of ranks in related Spells.
- These function as academic degree programs and are permanently locked into the system as opposed to Spell Points that can be lost over time from inactivity.
