Compared to peer production, only one in five workers in traditional cooperations share such motivation. It's followed by a analysis of business models, and the trend towards 'open business models' that forego intellectual property. A new model based on the centrality of collaborative platforms, shared designs, and… Continue

Additionally, I'm passionate about quality in online learning. I know, from my own teaching experiences, online learning is incredibly effective, if students are engaged through personalized environments, yet so much online learning is still dull, dry, flat, and millions of students are learning that way each year. Online learning cannot occur strictly within learning management systems - that's the downfall of online quality in higher ed.
Innovation requires risk taking, a fresh approach to tasks (like a child looks at each new experience), and being rewarded for doing all of those things. This describes the very antithesis of a tenure track professor experience at most colleges and universities.
I'm excited when I see communities of bright ideas coming together online, like this one. This is precisely what we need to do more of and I thank you for inviting me to be a part of it.
