- In response to the needs of students in higher education, The Newman Idea has launched IKONline, a new approach to communicating Integral Knowing!
  
  We have moved our IKON courses to a synchronous online format!
  
  Most universities have moved online in the wake of the new social norms. The Newman Idea was ready to make this transition, and our supporters helped us get there!
  
  A little background: In 2016 Dr. David Delio and Dr. Joshua Brumfield successfully launched a fully synchronous online Master's degree at the University of Holy Cross. We championed the use of Zoom and other technologies and truly learned how to create a great virtual culture. We also pioneered a unique adaptation in-class and virtual learning in which a small group of students could be in class and while others are fully interacting live via Zoom or some other social platform.
  
  Now we have brought our online experience of personal influence, along with the unique talents of Bo Bonner, to The Newman Idea's IKONline!
  
  We believe our virtual or hybrid format meets the needs of the moment, especially to allow for social distancing and interacting virtually.
  
  Being inspired by John Senior and the IHP method, we added another innovation to IKONline: team teaching. Our classes now feature 2-3 professors discussing and sharing different perspectives with students, and providing the ability to mentor them one on one.
  
  IKONline enables us to continue helping students to integrate their faith with their courses, majors and their future careers. We've developed a strong sense of community with the Tulane students in IKON NOLA and are excited to continue our seminars with them.
  
  However, we are broadening our reach to students across the country and will be teaching a summer course "The Harmony of the Sciences" in which students from anywhere can join. The course will meet Thursdays from 4:30-6pm CDT on zoom. Details on the course and a registration form are below.
  
  We have more information forthcoming! For now, please visit our IKON PROGRAM page for more information on our courses and readings!
  
  Our summer course is free, but we are always open to donations! Click here to support us.
  
  We invite you to join our class this summer. We have students and professors from Arizona, Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas, Louisana, Kansas and Iowa coming each week! If you are interested in joining us you can let us know HERE.
