As I write, I am at ALT-C in Nottingham and getting input and ideas - right now Ièm at a digital literacies seccion. I missed the session summarized in this post from Ignatia (it looks like it was interesting - but all I have to select sessions are paper titles and times (and thereès no clock in the venue, so even time gets tricky). The response to the question is, essentially, yes, MOOCs can address many of our pressing educational issues, but only if the form is tweaked to do so. "The format is now mature enough to be optimized for the challenges that we all – as global learners/teachers/researchers – are facing during these times of financial and educational crisis."
