  • The right to own one’s personal data and intellectual property Students also have the right to create and own intellectual property and data associated with their participation in online courses.

      A lot of my data - chats and forum postings have passed beyond my reach after an online course closed. What are some things I can start doing while Institutions are still not willing to change access policies? How much of another's forum posting is legitimate for me to copy to my own space so I have the context?

      One school in Maryland has decided it owns ALL student work; faculty work, as well. In what ways can we make sure this concept does not spread? What is the difference of ownership when state or federal funds are involved? when private funding is primary? Does public funding create the potential for open resources and sharing of personal date in the eyes of the institution; in the yes of others? in the eyes of the creator of the materials? How can we take ownership of our data. In days gone by, another "hard copy" placed in a personal "folder" was the answer. Today, our computer "folders" are no longer personal and may be accessed by companies, government agencies and hackers. Do we really have the rights to our own digital identity and intellectual property in the digital age? If so, what are some of the ways we can protect these elements? Long post with no concrete answers ... thanks for jump starting the thought processes!

A MOOC Delusion: Why Visions to Educate the World Are Absurd - 0 views

  •  
    ...scholars of international education have always warned against "a one-way transfer of educational materials from the rich north to the poor south will amount to a wave of 'intellectual neo-colonialism.'" But, again, because the MOOC movement is dominated by providers eyeing the world "market" for education, whatever they proclaim to be their motive, their attempts to make MOOCs "accessible" to international learners goes to show that they are either ignorant or unwilling to acknowledge geopolitical dynamics that shape learning experience on a global scale.

      Old world privacy was keeping people out. Thus if you found yourself with access you felt you had the right to do what ever you wanted to do with the information. Though you were expected to be circumspect.  While today's privacy is learning to protect the meaning of what is said. I say one thing and it means something different to each person who hears it.  You can share the information anyway you see fit, but don't share the meaning.

For Each to Excel: Preparing Students to Learn Without Us - 2 views

  • In this era of access, personalizing learning means allowing students to choose their own paths through the curriculum. For schools and teachers, it means connecting our expectations to students' passions and interests as learners.
  •  
    Will Richardson explores this idea: "By pairing personalized learning and technology, a teacher can help students learn what they need to learn through the topics that interest them most." How does "personal learning" fit into the structures we have in school learning environments?
