This document provides an overview of an immersion experience exploring SAIL, Northeastern's framework for integrated learning. It describes SAIL's goal of creating a seamless learning environment where learners can develop skills like systems thinking, help seeking, and intellectual agility through every experience. The day-long event will include sessions on how SAIL can map experiences to its framework and help learners integrate skills. It will feature a keynote by Bill Burnett on designing a well-lived, joyful life and discuss next steps for implementing SAIL.
