  • The first thing that both the financial system and the grading system devalue is the worth of assistance and generosity to others. Oh, sure, there is a token 'charitable donations' check-box in your income tax form. But imagine your income went up if you gave time, money or resources to charity, even if you were living on social assistance!
  • In the schools, too, there is no reward for helping others (indeed, it is heavily penalized). Suppose educational achievement was measured at least partially according to how much (and how well) you helped others.
  • Suppose instead students were rewarded for cooperation

  • Cooperation, which is a common and ad hoc creation of interactions and exchanges for mutual value.  Cooperative behaviours include exchanges of goods and services, agreement on open standards and protocols, sharing of resources in common (and open) pools, and similar behaviours.
  • Imagine receiving academic credit for contributing well-received resources into open source repositories, whether as software, art, photography, or educational resources. Imagine receiving credit for long-lasting additions to Wikipedia or similar online resources
  • something based on how the content contributed is used and reused across the net
  • Indeed, a person hoping to attain a higher level qualification would need to contribute to the public good in a substantial and tangible way. Offering open online courses (that are well-subscribed and positively reviewed by the community) should be a requirement for any graduate-level recognition.
  • These three things - helping others, being cooperative, contributing to the public good
  • - are obviously not easy to assess. To be sure, it's far easier to ask students simple questions and grade the number of correct responses.
  • all based on measuring what you contribute rather than what you collect.

    "À l'exception notable du Québec" : c'est faux ! Il y a actuellement plus de Moocs qui vont ouvrir dans les pays francophones d'europe qu'au Québec, où seule HEC Montréal a commencé. La situation est différente au Canada anglophone, mais ce n'est pas le Québec !
