# What is a hub?

We believe in learning by doing – it's not enough to learn new concepts intellectually; the real learning happens through discussion, application, and practice in the real world.

A hub is any physical space where Just Money participants come together to learn and co-create around the material offered through the Just Money MOOC.

Hubs help participants translate insights into actions and connections. The physical space enhances the typical MOOC experience by providing group support for self-organized learning and co-creation.

At a local level, hubs can help connect people around common interests or people who work together. At a global level, the various hubs from around the world may be part of a network of hub hosts that exchange insights, experiences, and knowledge.

## Size and Location <a href="#size-and-location" id="size-and-location"></a>

Hubs can be almost any size: five friends in a living room, ten co-workers in a meeting room, 100 people gathered in a local community center. Similarly, hubs can be anywhere. Hubs exist wherever Just Money participants choose to come together in the context of this course.

## How Often to Meet <a href="#how-often-to-meet" id="how-often-to-meet"></a>

How often to meet is entirely up to you and the hub participants. There are many ways to organize a hub. Every context is different. Some hubs convene weekly as participants take the course to reflect on course materials or engage in discussion activities. Others may choose to convene bi-weekly or monthly, depending on the pace at which the participants are taking the course and the needs of the group. Hubs may continue to meet after the course ends to further develop prototypes, continue the discussion circles, and deepen their connections to the movement.
