CopyrightX is a twelve-week networked course, offered each Spring under the auspices of Harvard Law School, the HarvardX distance-learning initiative, and the Berkman Center for Internet and Society. The course explores the current law of copyright and the ongoing debates concerning how that law should be reformed. Through a combination of pre-recorded lectures, weekly seminars, live webcasts, and online discussions, participants in the course examine and assess the ways in which law seeks to stimulate and regulate creative expression.

My heart is knocking loudly against my chest, and silence rings in my ears. It's always the same. Exams bring me a dry mouth, the shakes and vomit-inducing nerves. This one is no different.

Live online learning (or virtual classroom) events are now a major part of every organisation's learning delivery portfolio and are providing benefits in increased performance to the organisation. However, it is a proven fact that to be able to ensure the success of any live online learning event, it is vital that they are expertly designed to ensure that the learner can understand the content and more importantly be able to apply what they have learned back on the job. Overview The live online environment is very different to the face-to-face one. You cannot simply transfer your classroom courses to the live online environment. Designing learning for this environment requires a different way of thinking about participant engagement and interactivity. The CDOL course will provide you with proven research-based best practice tips and techniques for online training design that leads to practical learning transfer, which will be explained, practised, and reinforced throughout the course.

A week or so after Nick’s post I was discussing with my Onlignment colleagues about what we should call the field in which we work and Barry Sampson was quite clear that he didn’t like the term ‘online learning’. Why not? Because, for him, it implies a course, whereas ‘learning online’ is more about what learners do for themselves. Nick and Barry were both looking to distinguish push from pull, formal from informal, but had very different perceptions about what these terms mean. So what does that prove? Well, firstly, that terminology is a quagmire. There simply isn’t a term that doesn’t carry some baggage for some people.

The first wave of MOOCs suffer from replicating the standard 6/8/10 week semester college ‘Course’. That’s their problem. They’re too long, sometimes too ‘video’ heavy’ and don’t actually match the needs of the real audience – lifelong learners. The data is clear – MOOCs are for all. This is to be celebrated, not disparaged. Once you flip the benchmark and see MOOCs as evolving towards widespread use by everyone from school students, parents, vocational learners, students, adults, professionals, the retired, then the coin drops. This is all about flipping the model. My talk at Online Educa in Berlin argued that MOOCs are not evolutionary but revolutionary and that now the digital genie is out of the academic bottle, it will spread to other areas, where it will be far more effective and beneficial. MOOCs are NOT about HE, they’re much more important than that.
