Global Language Learning Exchange
I got the publicity email in my inbox today as well. Toffler Niemuth wrote, "italki has a new version -- featuring italki Knowledge, a source of free language learning textbooks. Now users can work together on creating an open source textbook using videos, pictures, sound and text." Derek Wenmoth comments on the site, "it provides a useful insight into how the traditional approach to distance education may be changing - from the paradigm of teacher (expert) delivering to students (learners) to members of the community teaching and supporting each other." Quite so. Derek Wenmoth, weblog, May 6, 2008. [Link] [Tags: Online Learning, Books, Video, Open Source, Paradigm Shift] [Previous][Next]Comments
