"In large states public education will always be mediocre, for the same reason that in large kitchens the cooking is usually bad."
~ Nietzsche

It looks like nothing before… Like open source Like Social Networks Like blogs and blogging Like wikis and collaborative
writing Like tagging and Digg and…
It looks like Web 2.0
The Internet of 2007
The Concept…
• Learning is centered around the interests of the learner
• This learning is immersive – learning by doing
• The computer connects the student to the rest of the world
Online Learning at the Crossroads
• On the one hand – we have developed tools and systems intended to support traditional classroom based learning
• On the other hand – we could (should?) be developing tools and systems to support immersive learning
• We should be developing for dynamic, immersive, living systems…
Self broadcasting
... Podcasting, video sharing, webcasting, slidecasting...
