It’s MOOAs, Not MOOCs, That Will Transform Higher Education

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. It’s MOOAs, Not MOOCs, That Will Transform Higher Education
Laurie Essig, The Chronicle: The Conversation, March 26, 2013
The article is tongue-in-cheek and meant as a reductio, but let's analyze the implications. In the Chronicle (where else?) Laurie Essig writes, "MOOAs are the perfect solution to the rising cost of higher education.

A Shared Story

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. A Shared Story
Stephen Collis, Happy Steve, March 26, 2013

False frontiers

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. False frontiers
Steve Wheeler, Learning with 'e's, March 26, 2013

In education, the common objective is usually to learn specific content, skills or competencies within defined areas." the definition is correct, but the depiction of 'shared objective' is not.

If you like learning, could I recommend analytics?

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. If you like learning, could I recommend analytics?
Bill Jerome, e-Literate, March 25, 2013
Quick summary of learning analytics. I like the tack taken, as Bill Jerome begins by emphasizing that there aren't easy analytics to be had (at least, not in learning). "Don’t get me wrong," he writes. More...
