Cris Crissman on 18 Jan 15"Abstract That's the nickname of Virginia Commonwealth University's first cMOOC, a fully online course that ran for the first time in the summer of 2014. It's also the phrase computer visionary Doug Engelbart coined to describe collaborative knowledge work in cyberspace. What does this enigmatic phrase suggest for higher education and the future of online learning? What emerging technologies will help to bring Engelbart's vision to fruition? What "trailing edge technologies" have not yet been used to their fullest in addressing this goal? And what organizational and cultural changes are necessary to return higher education to the core values that gave birth to the Internet in the first place?"
