Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community

This approach should remind you of some recent online courses. "Using a project created by Robin DeRosa, a professor of interdisciplinary studies at Plymouth State University, as a model, Paige is having her students create a "resource book" for the course." Sharing is also a major component. "One benefit of the project, Paige hopes, is that students take it seriously. It makes them realize, she said, 'I'm not just writing a paper for Robin to read.'" It's a good approach; it should have been tried long before now.
