Exponential Learning

Exponential Learning is required in technology learning to keep up with exponential technological advances. A simple linear learning model can keep up with linear learning systems that take long periods of time to introduce new information and new theories such as in history and anthropology and most other sciences. The one outstanding exception is computer technology since it improves at a rate doubling every 18 months. This means that computer curricula must be changed every two years at least. Even though every year sees curricula adaptations and improvements few curricula are overhauled every two years. The GIVC model allows for curricula overhaul every year.
