Canvas Module Alignment Strategy v1
SignalMate-Centric + Culture-as-Currency Training Overlay
🧭 Overview
This document lays out a proposed alignment of existing Canvas training modules with the foundational cultural principles of "Culture as Currency" and SignalMate integration. It also includes reusable components, prompt banks, and reflection structures that can be used across all modules to bring coherence, self-reflection, and real-time application to training.
🗂️ Module Alignment Table
| Module Type | SignalMate Entry Points | Cultural Overlay | Training Integration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Orientation / Onboarding | Welcome prompt: "What kind of learner are you?" | "You don’t join, you co-shape." | SignalMate login + first dictation; journal setup |
| Cybersecurity | Inquiry: "What am I assuming is safe?" | Model 1 vs Model 2: silence vs transparency | Dictation summary + questions for IT mentor |
| Outlook / Teams Setup | Prompt: "How do I think ahead in communication?" | "No surprises" / "Presence = camera on" | Use SignalMate to create calendar; ask system how to organize |
| Internship Orientation | Reflection: "Where have I owned vs waited?" | Ownership > Hierarchy | Practice sharing a Model 2 reflection in group thread |
| Business Development | NLP exercise: "What story am I projecting onto rejection?" | Signal as currency | Use SignalMate to debrief outreach attempts |
| Dealflow Basics | Dictate: "How do I describe a great deal?" | Clarity vs Generalization | Upload dictation → get SignalMate insights back |
| Teamwork / Feedback | Meta prompt: "Where did I distort someone else’s intention?" | Communication is oxygen | Practice peer review using Model 2 phrasing |
| Final Reflection | Prompt: "Who am I becoming through this internship?" | Co-founder identity | Long-form dictation + SignalMate analysis |
🔁 Reusable Components
- SignalMate Prompt Bank: Prompts like "What am I not seeing?" and "Where have I made an assumption without testing it?"
- Daily / Weekly Reflection Templates: One moment of ownership, feedback given or withheld, one action to change
- NLP Self-Diagnostic Quiz: Rate awareness and use of NLP practices (1–5 scale)
- Cultural Congruence Checklist: Ensures every module is inquiry-driven, uses SignalMate, and reinforces core values
🌱 Deployment Plan
- Phase 1: Install Culture as Currency as Day 0 – initiate journaling and SignalMate use
- Phase 2: Align Existing Modules – inject prompts and reflections into current content
- Phase 3: Train Interns to Reflect Publicly – integrate with Canvas, Notion, or SignalMate reports
- Phase 4: Web Portal Integration – embed materials and update as needed
🧩 Summary for Team Update
- We’ve launched a culture-first transformation of Canvas onboarding.
- The “Culture as Currency” module is now our living spine.
- SignalMate is being integrated as a thinking partner — not just a tool.
- All modules now include prompts, reflections, and Model 2 overlays.
- Interns self-train with dictation, reflection, and daily AI interaction.
- "We are not teaching content. We’re training presence."
