After discussing innovation and change in the online learning context, participants will consider ways in which MOOCs or other teaching and learning online innovations could be implemented at their institutions. Participants will have an opportunity to hear multiple institutional perspectives on MOOCs and will also meet with several of the presenters over lunch to discuss potential strategies.
Tuesday's agenda will include
* Exploring the MOOC's evolution and how the various models address student needs
* Considering what can be transferred from what we know of the online learning environment
to the MOOC learning model and vice versa
* Understanding what can be learned from large-scale innovations through research and
learning analytics
* Examining the MOOC as a new way to think about how we teach (i.e., the flipped classroom)
* Considering emerging and unaddressed issues in the online innovation context
