  • elearnspace › Remaking education in the image of our desires – Whose desires? Not mine. But when Siemens speaks, I listen, and I admire the moderate tone he takes in his comments on entrepreneurial reform of ed. But I wonder if the money boys need a public whacking, as in a comment by Lisa Lane: "So it shouldn’t be surprising that teachers and students are not the focus here – they are the obstacles to creating the quality product. Besides, after over a century of public education, surely they had their chance."

    And, by the way, entrepreneurs don't have a pedagogy. They are entrepreneurs, not teachers. – (education greed reform educationasproduct )

  • Prof. Jones’s wiki / Class Notes Assignment – Class notes are epistemologically weird. On the one hand, they feel quite private, but, on the other, if your understanding of what went on in class is too idiosyncratic, then you’re likely to do poorly on exams. (Also, to whatever extent a class is a shared intellectual enterprise, there should be at least *some* common understanding of what has gone on during our time together.) It can be hard to improve one’s notetaking skills, because it’s traditionally such an individual practice. Enter the wiki. – (wiki teaching fyw via:ccarey )
