  • Coursekit is a new tool that lets teachers and educators create mini social networks around individual courses and lectures.
  • The goal of the service, said Joseph Cohen, its co-founder and chief executive, is to take some of the most successful elements of social networking — especially the fluid exchange of ideas that comes natural to online interactions — to revitalize the education experience. Students are already accustomed to interacting online and supplementing their daily lives with the Web and social media. Why should that stop when it comes to learning? “Our education experience is truly offline,” he said. “We want to build what Facebook has done for your personal life, but for your school.”
  • Using Coursekit’s software, teachers can upload homework assignments, answer questions, grade work and facilitate discussions with their students. In addition, students can use the software to chat with one another, collaborate on projects and share relevant materials with their classmates

  • Coursekit is free to both the instructors and students that want to have access to it. The company says its main focus is attracting users, not making money

  • enlightening scientific evidence that a fluent speaker can acutally fool us into thinking we have learnt more than we actually have
  • I had been seduced by the cult of personality
  • I was looking for something like answers for systematic school change, yet all I found were charming individual examples and beguiling prose.
  • maintain my infinite hope invested in an education system that improves marginally day by day, by gritty perseverance.
  • Sir Ken’s latest speech was another barn-storming performance. But beyond the frilly knickers of the performance we are left searching for the less aesthetically pleasing undergarments that are the practical answers for change.
  • Thousands of hours of ‘deliberate practice’ enable creativity
  • repeating the rules of grammar with sometimes deadening repetition can actually create the mastery required for playful creativity and rule breaking.
  • I will take his glamorous TED talks with more than a pinch of salt.
  • No call for creativity by Sir Ken would provide a universal panacea to the grey, ambiguous reality of schooling
  • a fluent speaker can acutally fool us into thinking we have learnt more than we actually have in comparison to a less fluent speaker
