My Mission, Our Journey - a new weekly update

by Rob Houben

Aug 28, 2025

Hi,

As you know, I'm on a mission: to turn education into an experience that starts from and with the motivation of all learners: students, staff members, and your wider community.

In the last couple of years, I've worked hard to establish a backbone for this mission - the allLearners Building Blocks - which I use with my clients around the world. I'm now at a point where I have the time to share our experience with everyone.

Besides posting on LinkedIn, I'm going to do this by sending you the allLearners update on a weekly basis.

I've included you on this list because of our connection, but I want your inbox to be a place of value. If this weekly update isn't for you, you can opt-out at any time with a single click at the bottom. No hard feelings whatsoever!

What you can expect:

‘New’ ideas and insides through inspirational & recognizable stories
Links to resent posts
Insides from our allLearners Building Blocks toolkit
The chance to get access to free materials & courses

Your first official issue will arrive next week. We'll kick off with a story about the importance of the Freedom to Experiment & Research (one of our Building Blocks). Including a reflection on the first week of school.

I'm excited to share this journey with you.

All the best,

Rob Houben

We spent time at a great practical education school (children with IQ’s below 80) in Roermond, at Agora (my old secon...

Why there was no happy new year

Hi, You might have noticed that this update didn’t arrive in the first weeks of January, and that it didn’t start with a cheerful Happy New Year. That wasn’t a planning issue. It was a matter of being true to where I was. On December 30th, my best friend of more than 30 years took his own life. Something none of us saw coming. The day before, we spent the entire day together: a long walk throug...

Looking back, and a small step forward

It’s December, a natural moment to look back, but also to look ahead. That’s exactly what I’d like to do in this update. I won’t take much of your time. Below is a simple overview of what you’ll find in this newsletter, so you can decide what to read now, and what to skip while your thoughts drift toward a well-deserved break. In this update: 1. A short look back at 20252025 was a year in which...
