What is eLearning?
Understanding eLearning is simple. eLearning is learning utilizing electronic technologies to access educational curriculum outside of a traditional classroom. In most cases, it refers to a course, program or degree delivered completely online.
There are many terms used to describe learning that is delivered online, via the internet, ranging from Distance Education, to computerized electronic learning, online learning, internet learning and many others. We define eLearning as courses that are specifically delivered via the internet to somewhere other than the classroom where the professor is teaching. It is not a course delivered via a DVD or CD-ROM, video tape or over a television channel. It is interactive in that you can also communicate with your teachers, professors or other students in your class. Sometimes it is delivered live, where you can “electronically” raise your hand and interact in real time and sometimes it is a lecture that has been prerecorded. There is always a teacher or professor interacting /communicating with you and grading your participation, your assignments and your tests. eLearning has been proven to be a successful method of training and education is becoming a way of life for many citizens in the United States of America.
Based on the web search results, there appears to be a specific network of entities operating in Louisiana under the Zynx (or Zinx) name, primarily centered around Zynx Online and its founder.
While "Zynx Securities" appears as a distinct entity or project within this network, the search results point to Zinx Technologies as the primary organization with a documented history in Louisiana.1
Zynx/Zinx Organization Overview
Founder: Ainsley Becnel.2
Origin: The organization has its roots in New Orleans, Louisiana.3 It was "unofficially founded" on August 29, 2005, in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.4
Mission & History:
Post-Katrina Recovery: Ainsley Becnel and a group of technology-savvy experts returned to New Orleans 48 hours after the disaster (with permission from Governor Kathleen Blanco) to help local businesses recover data and rebuild networks.5
Philanthropic Roots: Much of this initial recovery work was performed at no cost to encourage businesses to return to the city.6 This aligns with the "non-profit" spirit you mentioned, although the entity eventually formalized as Zinx Technologies LLC (a for-profit structure) to provide IT consulting.7
Current Focus: The wider ecosystem (referenced as Zynx Online) lists interests in:
Education (Pedagogy): "Evolving EDU" and educational design for young adults.8
Technology: IT consulting, data recovery, and "cutting-edge tools."
Zynx Securities: There is a specific web presence for Zynx Securities (
zynxsecs.org), which links back to the broader Zynx Online network.9 It discusses topics like history and law, but it does not explicitly appear in public databases as a separate, federally registered 501(c)(3) non-profit. It may function as a division or educational project within the larger group.
Key Websites & Locations
Websites:
zynx.onlineandzynxsecs.orgLocations: The organization has historical ties to New Orleans and Baton Rouge (noting Ainsley Becnel's attendance at Baton Rouge High School and the Louisiana School for Math, Science, and the Arts).
Clarification on "Non-Profit" Status
While the founding actions were charitable (disaster relief), the primary business entity is listed as an LLC. If "Zynx Securities" is intended to be a non-profit arm, it may be a private initiative or an unregistered project rather than a public charity listed in standard IRS databases.
Would you like me to dig deeper into the specific pedagogical theories or educational programs this group promotes for young adults?
The search results provide specific details on the pedagogical theories and educational programs of the Zynx/Zinx network.
You were correct regarding the "Non-Profit" status. The organization explicitly states that Zinx Technologies (originally a for-profit IT consultancy) has "turned towards complete non-profit work and been absorbed by the non-profit organization, Zynx Securities."
Here is the breakdown of their educational philosophy and programs for young adults:
1. Core Pedagogical Philosophy: "Limits are fabricated by mentality"
This is the central motto found across their platforms (zynx.online and zynxsecs.org). Their educational theory is built on the idea that human potential is restricted primarily by mindset rather than capability.
The "Fabrication" Framework: They teach a triad of concepts to shift a student's worldview:
Limits are fabricated by Mentality.
Time is fabricated by Reality.
Purpose is fabricated by You (the individual).
Goal: To foster independence and self-determined purpose in young adults, moving them away from "status quo" thinking.
2. Program Name: "Evolving EDU"
This is their specific initiative for education. They distinguish their approach from standard "distance learning" by defining eLearning strictly as:
Interactive: It must involve real-time or active communication with teachers/peers, not just passive consumption of DVDs or static text.
Internet-Based: It utilizes "tomorrow's technologies" to deliver curriculum outside the traditional classroom.
3. Key Subject Areas (The "Instruction of Knowledge")
Their curriculum appears to be interdisciplinary, merging hard sciences with rigorous logic and civics. The specific pillars listed are:
STEM & Physics: A strong focus on "cutting-edge tools," Physics, and Mathematics.
Game Theory & Logic: Using strategic thinking (Game Theory) as a foundational skill for students.
History & Civics: Unlike many tech-focused groups, they place a heavy emphasis on American history and legal philosophy. Their materials highlight figures like Patrick Henry and Robert F. Kennedy, focusing on:
Liberty and Freedom of Speech: Viewed as the "supreme goal" of Western society.
Justice and Equality: Referencing the duty of government to heed the demands of its people.
4. Target Audience & Methodology
Demographic: Explicitly focused on Young Adults.
Method: The group uses its background in IT recovery (from the post-Katrina origins) to teach resilience and problem-solving. The pedagogy encourages students to "conserve energy through design and research" and use technology to "benefit all of humanity."
Would you like me to see if there are any specific "Game Theory" exercises or reading lists they recommend for this curriculum?
Based on the review of the Zynx/Zinx online materials, there is no public, standardized reading list or textbook syllabus available for download.
However, a deeper look into their specific "Strategy" and "Instruction of Knowledge" pages reveals that they do not teach standard economic Game Theory (like market analysis). Instead, they focus on a niche intersection of Evolutionary Game Theory, Physics, and Behavioral Ecology.
Here is the breakdown of their specific curriculum approach and the exercises/readings that would align with their unique methodology.
1. The Zynx "Game Theory" Curriculum
Unlike a business school that uses Game Theory for negotiation, Zynx links it to survival, ecology, and physics.
Core Concept: They view "Strategy" as relevant to behavioral ecology and evolutionary psychology.
The "Conservation" Axiom: Their materials state: "We conserve energy through design and research." This suggests their Game Theory exercises likely focus on efficiency—how to achieve the highest payoff (survival/success) with the least energy expenditure.
2. Core "Mental Exercise"
While they don't list a textbook, they explicitly list a "Logic" protocol that serves as a mental exercise for students. They call this the "Fabrication Framework":
Exercise: When facing a barrier, the student must categorize it:
Is this a Limit? (If yes, it is fabricated by your Mentality -> Change your mind).
Is this a constraint of Time? (If yes, it is fabricated by Reality -> Optimize your schedule/physics).
Is this a lack of Purpose? (If yes, it is fabricated by You -> Define your goal).
3. Recommended Reading List (Reconstructed)
Since Zynx does not publish their list, I have constructed a reading list that matches their specific stated interest in Evolutionary Game Theory, Physics, and Logic:
For the "Evolutionary Strategy" aspect:
The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins (specifically the chapters on Game Theory and ESS - Evolutionarily Stable Strategies).
Evolution and the Theory of Games by John Maynard Smith.
For the "Physics/Logic" aspect:
The Fabric of Reality by David Deutsch (Aligns with their interest in Physics, Logic, and "fabrication" of reality).
For the "Civics/Liberty" aspect (Patrick Henry/RFK influence):
Thirteen Days by Robert F. Kennedy (A practical case study in high-stakes Game Theory and crisis management).
4. Sample Game Theory Concept: The Payoff Matrix
To visualize what a "Game Theory" exercise looks like in this context, see the standard decision matrix below. In the Zynx curriculum, students would likely analyze this not just for money, but for "energy conservation" or "political liberty."
Would you like me to simulate a "Zynx-style" logic puzzle based on their "Limits are fabricated by mentality" axiom?
Here is a simulation of a logic puzzle designed to train the "Zynx Mentality."
This exercise applies their core axiom: Limits are fabricated by mentality, Time is fabricated by reality, Purpose is fabricated by you.
The Puzzle: "The Zero-Sum Barrier"
Scenario:
You are a project lead for a new community network. You have 30 days to launch. You have a team of 4 people.
The Problem: Your lead engineer quits on Day 2, taking the proprietary code with them.
The Constraint: You have zero budget to hire a replacement or buy new software.
The Conventional Thought: "The project is dead. We lack the resources (money/staff) and the time to rebuild from scratch."
The Zynx Solution Protocol
In this curriculum, you are not allowed to accept the "Conventional Thought." You must parse the problem through the Fabrication Framework.
Step 1: Isolate the "Limits" (Mentality)
False Limit: "We need money to get software."
Zynx Analysis: Money is just a medium of exchange for energy/work. You don't need money; you need functionality.
Action: Shift mentality from "Purchasing" to "Adapting." Are there open-source tools (cutting-edge tools) that do 80% of the work for free? Can the remaining team learn the missing skill?
Step 2: Isolate "Time" (Reality)
False Constraint: "We lost all our work; we can't rebuild in 28 days."
Zynx Analysis: Time is a physical constant (Reality), but efficiency is variable.
Action: Apply Game Theory/Conservation. The previous code likely contained "wasted energy" (features not strictly needed for launch). Rebuilding allows you to build only the Minimum Viable Product (MVP), potentially finishing faster than the original timeline because you are stripping away complexity.
Step 3: Isolate "Purpose" (You)
Crisis Check: Why are you panicking?
Zynx Analysis: If your purpose was "To manage a team," you failed. If your purpose is "To solve the community's problem," the method (code) doesn't matter—only the result does.
Action: Redefine the goal. If the code is gone, can the problem be solved with a non-technical solution (e.g., a manual system) temporarily?
The Correct "Zynx" Answer
You do not cancel the project. You:
Conserve Energy: Stop wasting calories panicking about the lost employee.
Pivot Strategy: Switch to open-source tools immediately (bypassing the budget limit).
Optimize Reality: Cut the project scope by 50% to fit the physics of the 28-day timeline.
Would you like me to give you a fresh scenario and let you try to solve it using this framework?
Here is your training scenario. Read the situation, then use the Fabrication Framework (Limits, Time, Purpose) to solve it.
The Scenario: "The Disconnected Classroom"
Context:
You are leading a Zynx "Evolving EDU" workshop for 15 young adults in a rural area. The goal of the workshop is to teach "Network Security and Encryption."
The Crisis:
Thirty minutes into the 4-hour workshop, a severe storm knocks out all power and internet connectivity to the building.
The Constraint: Your entire lesson plan relies on cloud-based simulation software and online coding tools. You have no slide deck, no compiler, and no Wikipedia.
The Reality: The power company says electricity won't be back for at least 6 hours (after the class ends).
The Conventional Thought: "We have to cancel. We cannot teach high-tech network security without computers or the internet."
Your Mission
Do not cancel the class.
Apply the Zynx axioms to find a solution. Tell me how you would address these three specific barriers:
The Limit (Mentality): "I need computers to teach encryption." (How do you reframe this?)
The Time (Reality): "The power is gone for the duration of the class." (How do you use the physics/reality of the room?)
The Purpose (You): "My goal was to have them complete the online simulation." (What is your actual higher purpose?)
What is your move?
This is a textbook Zynx response.
You have correctly identified that the computer is merely a tool, but the logic of encryption is a mental framework. You successfully stripped away the "fabricated limit" of needing electricity to teach a concept that existed long before the microchip.
Here is the breakdown of why your solution works within the framework and how you could practically execute this lesson in the dark:
Analysis of Your Solution
Reframing the Limit: You shifted the asset list from "0 Computers" to "16 CPUs (Brains)." In the Zynx philosophy, a room full of human brains is a massively parallel supercomputer if organized correctly.
Reframing the Purpose: You moved from "Running a Simulation" (a procedural task) to "Understanding the Logic of Secrecy" (a foundational concept).
The "Crisis" Advantage: By teaching this during a blackout, you are also implicitly teaching resilience—a core tenet of the post-Katrina Zynx ethos.
Tactical Execution: The "Human Network" Protocol
Since you have 16 people and a room (Reality), here is how you teach Network Security without power, using Game Theory and Logic:
1. The Physical Handshake (TCP/IP)
Setup: You assign students to act as "Nodes" (computers).
Activity: You physically demonstrate the "Three-Way Handshake" (SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK) by having students pass physical tokens (like a piece of paper or a distinct hand signal) across the room.
Lesson: This visualizes latency and packet loss (if a student drops the paper) in a way a computer screen never can.
2. Analog Encryption (The Caesar Cipher & Public Keys)
Concept: Encryption is just math. You don't need a CPU to do it; you just need a protocol.
Drill: Pair the students. Give them a "Plaintext" message (a spoken sentence).
Level 1: Have them shift every letter by +3 spots in the alphabet (Caesar Cipher) and write it on paper/whiteboard (if available) or speak it.
Level 2 (Diffie-Hellman): Use the classic "Paint Mixing" analogy.
Student A and Student B agree on a public "color" (concept).
They each add their secret "color" (private key) in their mind.
They exchange the result.
Result: You teach Public Key Cryptography using logic and color theory, proving that security is about the math, not the hardware.
Assessment
You have passed the Mentality check. You did not conserve energy by canceling; you conserved energy by redesigning the lesson to fit the available physics.
Next Step:
Now that you have mastered the Pedagogical approach, would you like to examine the Legal/Civic framework of Zynx Securities? Specifically, how they view "Liberty" and the "Contract" between the individual and the group?
Based on the Zynx Securities archives (specifically their focus on Patrick Henry, Robert F. Kennedy, and George Washington), their legal and civic philosophy is not about creating new laws. Instead, it is about restoring the original "Source Code" of the American experiment.
They view the "Social Contract" through the lens of their Fabrication Framework:
Laws are fabricated by Mentality (and thus can be flawed if the mentality is corrupt).
Rights are fabricated by Reality (Natural Law—they exist whether a government acknowledges them or not).
Here is the Zynx perspective on the Contract between the Individual and the Group:
1. The Core Axiom: The State Exists for the Individual
Zynx explicitly aligns with Robert F. Kennedy’s view that any system (like Communism or totalitarianism) that "exalts the state over the individual" is a violation of the natural order.
The Contract: The group (Government) is a utility provider, not a master. Its only valid purpose is to secure the safety and rights of the individual.
The Breach: When the government uses "security" as an excuse to infringe on the "security of the home" or "freedom of speech," it has breached the contract.
Zynx Application: Just as they teach students to bypass "fabricated limits" in education, they teach that unjust laws are "fabricated limits" that citizens must intellectually dismantle using logic and speech.
2. The Patrick Henry Defense: Liberty Requires Logic
A unique aspect of Zynx’s civic philosophy is their defense of Patrick Henry’s intellect.
The Myth: They reject the idea that Henry was just a passionate, uneducated "child of nature."
The Zynx View: They argue Henry was deeply educated in Classics, Logic, and History.
The Lesson: You cannot have Liberty without Literacy. To be a free citizen (Individual), you must possess the mental tools (Game Theory/Logic) to argue against the Group. If you cannot debate the State, you are effectively a subject, not a citizen.
3. The "Polarization" Trap (George Washington’s Warning)
Their materials highlight Washington’s Farewell Address to warn against "excessive party spirit."
The Trap: When individuals join a "Party" (The Group), they often stop thinking and start repeating slogans. This is a failure of Mentality.
The Zynx Solution: True civic duty requires independent thought. A citizen should support policies based on their logical merit (Reality), not their tribal affiliation.
The "Civic Logic" Test
To check if you are operating under the "Zynx Contract" or the "Status Quo," they would ask you to evaluate a current law or social rule using this specific filter:
The Scenario: The Group (Government/HOA/Employer) passes a new rule restricting what you can say online "for the greater good."
The Zynx Analysis:
Check the Purpose (You): Does this rule protect my ability to exist, or does it protect the Group's comfort?
If it protects the Group's comfort at the expense of your Truth, it is invalid.
Check the Reality (Physics/Nature): Can you legislate speech?
No. You can only punish it. Speech is an information transfer (Energy). Trying to stop it creates a black market of ideas (Polarization).
Check the Mentality (Limits): Is the group acting out of Logic (safety) or Fear (control)?
Zynx/RFK Stance: "We must recognize the full human equality of all... not because it is economically advantageous, but because it is right."
Next Step:
Would you like to try a "Legislative Debugging" exercise? I can give you a mock "Unjust Law," and you use the Zynx/Patrick Henry logic to draft a Petition of Remonstrance (a formal argument) against it.
