Evidence that learning cannot be contained within the boundaries of a course, I’ve taken a couple double takes reading both Audrey Watters’ and Mike Caulfield’s excellent critiques about Sugra Mitra and his Hole in the Wall project in India. Caulfield also tweeted a link to this excellent essay by Morozov touching on the topic of his book about solutionism,: which is “an intellectual pathology that recognizes problems as problems based on just one criterion: whether they are solvable with a nice and clean technological solution at our disposal” This harkened me back to last year during #Change11 week 24 session ...

Another great #etmooc session this eve. Audrey Watters dropped some awesome thought bombs. She posed some challenging questions, as we move beyond the analog manilla envelope (like her mom collected of her school artefacts) into the digital realm and quintillions of bytes are collected daily.

Reading Chris Lott’s poetic comment about loss in response to Jim’s assertion that Nothing is Lost …there’s not only nothing wrong with writing one’s poem and sending it down the river on fire, it might be a significantly better way to transcend the technical issues and consider what it means to *be* the idea struck me so much, I decided to do this very thing in a literal sense.

cc licensed ( BY NC SD ) flickr photo shared by giulia.forsythe Starring Sebastian Thrun and all those xMOOCS: Udacity, Coursera, EDx (because they are the ones that get all the attention) but produced, directed and thought about by George Siemens, Alec Couros, Dave Cormier, Stephen Downes. Poster based on The Blob illustrated movie poster, aptly named Design Assignment 666 (number of the BEAST!!!) I read some comments in the Openness in Education newsletter today about whether MOOCs should be feared by institutions because they threaten their financial viability. Will MOOCs disrupt the regular university experience? Hopefully! At first I ...
