A significant challenge teachers in the UK face is the amount of time spent on repetitive tasks and constantly reinventing the wheel. @ Curriculum.com we’re developing an LMS to automate much of this workload for them.

lukedeering··on Accelerate or Die Hard
Valid point! To be honest, the title could have been the first paragraph, but I just saw the new Bruce Willis move and thought it gave the KickStarter title a nice KICK
lukedeering··on Accelerate or Die Hard
Great question! So, Founders at Work is a compilation of awesome interviews with successful founders looking back at their days as a startup. Accelerate focusses on accelerator programs themselves and their graduates. We do have several founders in the book that graduated from a program several years back, but in the future we will be concentrating more on the very recent graduates. Hope this helps to answer your question. Cheers, Luke
