Summary
Welcome to the LifeSchool Videos Demo Day Project for August 28th, 2021! Join our Facebook group to participate! This is where families from anywhere can share their videos and other projects using the www.WEquil.School learning by doing philosophy!
My name is Aila WEquil, CEO of Blend & Mix, a startup I launched from WEquil.School. I will be moderating the Demo Day and helping our members create Minimum Viable Projects to iterate and improve 12pm Thursday August 26th, 2021. That is the due date for members that wish to participate in this LifeSchool Videos Demo Day!
Guest Speaker!
We have a really awesome guest speaker lined up for our Demo Day! Evan Rosenfeld is an award-winning documentary film maker! He is a story-teller who creates films that are both informative and entertaining. His work lends itself well to our "LifeSchool" theme because he focuses on compelling subject matters that relate to culture and society. Evan is a production executive at VICE Media, Mandalay Sports Media, and Hecho Studios. He also created his own production company Dukes Up. You can read about his work as his website linked below.
Here is the link to the trailer of one of his films called Warriors of Liberty City
How to participate?
Families from anywhere are welcome to participate in our Demo Day by joining our public Facebook Group. From here you will receive updates on our Theme of the week, upcoming Demo Days, and resources from our website on how to learn by doing! Then you share your Creative Projects with other members of the group!
We broadcast our public Demo to everyone in this Facebook group at 2pm EST. We also record these and put them up on our YouTube channel. Check out this recent Demo Day on Psychology with student led presentations and insights from our guest speaker Dr Bergman of Harvard Medical School!
Thank you for your interest in our upcoming LifeSchool Video Demo Day! Excited to see your projects! Reach out to us on Facebook if you have questions!
Sincerely,
Aila WEquil

How to become a WEquil.School member?
We also have a private group for member families that wish to share with others that demonstrated a strong desire to join. To join the private group you will need to submit an application through home page of www.WEquil.School with a Creative Project that satisfies our guidelines.
Demo Day is a really important part of WEquil.School. We don't have grades ... we learn from a process of Creating Projects that we share with other members of WEquil.School. We then go through an iterative process of improvement until our project is ready to present. To participate in our public Demo Day you need to be a full member of WEquil.School. Anyone in the world can apply, but only friends of existing members or those who have participated in our Demo Days will be considered.
Sincerely,
WEquil.School Leadership Team
