Learning from offering open courses: "Deakin University will launch its first massive open online course (MOOC) on Monday and use it as a test-bed for redeveloping its full learning environment." They're looking specifically "to test how it could assess skills employers wanted, such as communication, ­digital literacy, problem-solving, self-management and teamwork." I think, in general, that it's really difficult to learn how to develop and deploy e-leanring without something like thisas a test-bed system. Certainly I think I've learned more developing gRSShopper and offering MOOCs than I ever did reading papers and journal articles. Via Sui Fai John Mak.
