 # 🌠 Module 0 - An Introduction to Kernel
 
-Kernel is an 8 week program, and we'll be covering a new learning module each week. 
+Kernel is supported by this 8 module digital book intended to teach you to think about and build a better web.

 Each module is made up of two sections: **Crafted Reading**, which we encourage you to 
 have read before the beginning of each new week; and **Curated Briefs** which are made up of 
 articles, videos, and the occasional podcast that we _highly recommend_ you go over before the

 to read both pieces to participate fully in each week's activities.

 Each brief begins with a few scene-setting sentences and then a section called “How Does This Fit Into Kernel?”, meant to describe succinctly why this particular piece has been included in our work and what role it plays in the larger learning arc we present. The source material for each brief is embedded directly into the top of each page so that you can explore it in more detail if the brief itself resonates with you, and because we understand that many people do not learn best by parsing long walls of text.

 Any word is understood by virtue of _shared experience_. When you and I have both seen someone wearing an object on their head shading them from the sun, we can talk meaningfully with each other by using the word 'hat'. This is clear enough for words like 'hat' or 'cat' or 'sat'. However, what about words like 'trust'? How can we cultivate trust in our environments when we are each others' environment? If you try to force or manipulate others to trust you (just as if you try to force others to love you), this generally results in greater suspicion.

 > "**Welcome opposition**. Quantum thinking must be learned through practice, and disagreement can be an extremely valuable source of energy needed for learning and growth. The real learning is not engraved in a curriculum, waiting for the student to memorize it; the real learning is the transformational processes taking place inside the person who uncompromisingly pulls the curriculum apart, chews the pieces, spits out the bits that are not to their (current) taste, and digests the rest into a growing understanding of the world, which can only ever be highly subjective. Children know how to do this; it is adults who lead them astray by demanding that children ‘trust’ everything that is fed to them. It would be better to teach kids to trust their own process and the people who welcome their questions and opposition.
