Knowledge, Learning, Community

Because I don't use Facebook (on account of it being generally evil) I can't join the Online Learning Collective. But I like the objective and would encourage them to use a less predatory communications channel. "The (higher ed) Online (Teaching &) Learning Collective was initiated to aid college and university educators transitioning from face-2-face instruction to online and remote learning during the spring 2020 semester. The purpose is to help each other—experts and novices—get through the next couple weeks or entire semester and beyond. Together." To date they've set up this website, discussed some things in Facebook, created a mentored open online course, managed already to get some publicity,  and created a few videos on how to get started teaching online.
