Seed & Water
Becoming capable takes two things, and neither works alone.
The seed — formal training. Structured, knowledge-based coursework: the theory, the standards, the how-and-why of a subject. It’s necessary. You start here. In opplet, the seed is delivered through Moodle, organized into tracks.
The water — informal growth. No amount of reading teaches you to swim; you learn by swimming. The bulk of real ability comes from doing the work itself — messy, practical, repeated, on tasks that matter. In opplet, the water is proving: unpaid public work in the Commons, where the seed turns into skill.
A course catalog alone would be a half-truth. The seed without the water is a manual no one has practised. This section keeps both in view — and sends you to where each actually happens.
| Half | What it is | Where it lives |
|---|---|---|
| Seed | Formal knowledge-based coursework | Moodle tracks |
| Water | Informal learning by doing | Proving, on public work |
