The world doesn't need more courses-It needs better ones

"We don't need more courses. We need better ones. Everywhere I look, someone is launching a "Learn Figma in 5 Days" crash course or a "Top 10 AI Hacks for Beginners" tutorial. And don't get me wrong - those courses aren't useless. They scratch an itch, they help you pick up a tool, and sometimes they even get you to a quick win."

"But they're not the kind of courses that shape how we design, write, or create. They're not the courses that prepare us for the world we're building right now - a world shaped by accessibility, ethics, and human-centered technology. At 3 AM, when sleep feels impossible, I find myself scribbling down a list. A different kind of curriculum. Not tutorials, not hacks, but courses that ask harder questions."

Short crash tutorials deliver quick, tool-focused wins but fail to develop durable design, writing, or creation practices. Those tutorials often teach how to use tools without addressing ethical responsibilities, accessibility requirements, or human-centered implications. A different curriculum would prioritize deeper questions, courage from educators, and instruction on responsible use of tools. Courses should embed ethics and accessibility, cultivate human-centered design thinking, and emphasize long-term judgment over fast hacks. Such courses would prepare learners for a technology-driven world shaped by accessibility and ethics, producing creators who design responsibly and inclusively rather than merely mastering surface-level techniques.
