Dron and Anderson propose a number of changes to traditional education — changes that make room for the expanded possibilities that online crowds and networked learning provide. Some of these changes include:
offering courses of variable length
using competency-based assessment tools instead of end-of-term exams
dissolving the boundaries between disciplines
The goal, as the authors write in the final chapter of their book, is to “provide methods of learning that are fitted to the subject and people learning them, not the needs and capabilities of institutions teaching them. This is what (networked learning) allows.”
Via Miloš Bajčetić
