Scoop.it!
Knowledge used to be the sole domain of the individual, highly educated expert. A professor with a PH.D. or a carefully researched and written book were the best sources to find out about something. This is a model of learning that has held sway since the earliest human societies formed and people with particular fields of expertise taught other members of their groups. The Internet and social media have dramatically changed what it means to know something, and initiatives like Wikipedia are reshaping where we turn for "expert" information. Social collaboration and meaning making are allowing for knowledge to be the domain of a collective group rather than any individual. A recent study even revealed that Wikipedia is now as accurate as the Encyclopedia Britanica.

You don’t need an expert for this – you just needs someone who knows the answer to the problem. So we have attempted to scale by connecting people with many other students. Instructors are still there, for the tough and difficult problems. ==> But students can help each other out, and are expected to do so. <==
Gust MEES's insight:
I agree completely with that and I encourage students to learn while using curation as their own resources and joining a #PLN (Personal Learning Network) where they could even make a Peer-Review by themselves first and later by their "Coach" (Teacher, Professor, Instructor...) for final advice ;)
Students in 21st Centure are mature enough already (mostly) to do so and I encourage them to choose that way, BUT listen to the Master, YOUR "Coach" and try to go for a win-win situation, every body wins and NOBODY looses, OK!? ;) Enjoy that new way of learning, it's a great way of learning with fun and on YOUR own pace... ===> #motivation #success #criticalthinking #proactivethinking #society #21stC
So, what is a #PLN (Personal Learning Network) and how can I use it? Check out my curation about it here:
