MOOCs: Too Much Hype, or Not Enough? | Innovation Insights | Wired.com - 0 views

  • The next generation MOOC (I’ll go ahead and coin ngMOOC now — you’re welcome) will have to employ more of a feedback loop to the student. Understanding the issues with social learning at scale, most progressive MOOC providers are finding ways to utilize graduate students, or simply more advanced students, like Seniors, who have already taken a course, to help push conversation and assessment. By seeding courses with large clusters of “more knowledgeable others” (as Vygotsky would call them), providers theorize they can get at the kind of learning communities desired to make a MOOC work at scale. So, essentially the next generation of MOOC combines the worlds of the xMOOC and the cMOOC, by using computers to do as much simulated instruction and assessment as possible, while making up for communication and community flaws through social construction. Wait, maybe the next generation MOOC should be an “xcMOOC” — you’re welcome again.
  • For instance, as I’ve noted before, a number of schools are working to crack the $10,000 Baccalaureate degree. To do so, it is likely that these schools and programs will need to employ the MOOC concept (whether their solutions need to include “massive” courses is yet to be determined). That means using reusable, self-paced, socially networked courses to free up typical administrative or teaching overhead. That means using more machine learning for grading, adaptivity, and personalization.
  • Are MOOCs over-hyped and dying? I don’t think so.

  • We don’t need a new letter in front of a MOOC. Maybe we just need a new name for a MOOC. You know, something like: eCourse. Because at the end of the day, these massive courses may just be another way that any student can learn at any time.

Exploring Curation as a core competency in digital and media literacy education | Mihai... - 0 views

  • Critical media literacy, in this context is utilized to combat the hegemonic power structures in society by training students to become critical thinkers, thereby transferring power from the hands of the distributers to the hands of the receivers.

  • While traditional techniques remain relevant for students today, there is a need to explore pedagogical models that aim to empower critical thinking within the context of digital realities for youth today.
  • play, performance, simulation, appropriation, multitasking, distributed cognition, collective intelligence, judgment, transmedia navigation, networking, and negotiation
  • Organization is no longer simply for daily routines, pastimes or hobbies, but also for news and current affairs.
  • curation as value-added.
  • When the lists are public, the user becomes a de facto expert in showing the value placed on certain sources, organizations, and individuals over others. This type of curation "allows the people formerly known as the audience to create value for one another every day" (Shirky 2010, 17).
  • Curation is an act of problem solving.
  • task of the curator is to organize the information into a story

The MOOC Heard Around the World | Innovation Insights | Wired.com - 0 views

  • Unless you are auto-didactic learner (think Abe Lincoln) who can take a piece of content, internalize it, and not only retain it but apply it, MOOCs are likely problematic for you.
  • 5-8% retention rates. Couple that with weak (aka unauthentic) assessments,
  • In MOOCs today there is almost zero student choice,

  • Build your own (2nd GEN!) MOOC with purpose, solid learning design, and good pedagogical / andragogical models.
