RHIZOMATIC LEARNING

L'apprendimento rizomatico si sviluppa e stabilisce connessioni in qualsiasi direzione (metafora del rizoma come innesto nelle piante), a differenza dell'apprendimento inteso in senso tradizionale come processo/pensiero che procede gerarchicamente e linearmente seguendo rigide categorie binarie (metora dell'albero/concezione "arborescente").

Il MOOC si fa blended...

Christa Meenan's curator insight, April 23, 2015 8:14 AM

While highlighting the obvious benefits of MOOCs for self-motivated individuals, this aricle does a nice job of also explaining the importance of face-to-face interaction with the instructor for many students to succeed.  Blending MOOCs with other forms of delivery may be a way for MOOCs to move forward with lower dropout rates.

even the loudest critics of MOOCs do not expect them to fade away. More likely, they will morph into many different shapes: Already, San Jose State is getting good results using videos from edX, a nonprofit MOOC venture, to supplement some classroom sessions, and edX is producing videos to use in some high school Advanced Placement classes. And Coursera, the largest MOOC company, is experimenting with using its courses, along with a facilitator, in small discussion classes at some United States consulates.

La hausse de la quatrième helice- The rise of the forth Helix.

The question of the round table: how digitalisation of Universities will affect society?
