The schMOOC/MOOCOW* (Massive Open Online Course Or Whatever) will explore John Sener's book "The
    Seven Futures of American Education: Improving Learning & Teaching in a
    Screen-Captured World."



The series will
    include these participation options ("paths"):

· guided sequence to enable
    participants to create an action plan for implementing one or more quality
    improvement strategies in their course, program, or institution.

· “do-it-yourself” (DIY)   approach which allows participants to learn what they
    wish by defining their own objectives and using available resources (both
    inside and outside the course) to attain them as desired.

The series will also
    model several of the key strategies described in Seven Futures, including:

· learner-generated content (create an action plan and other content that you can use),

· event-anchored learning (participate in TLT Group's FridayLive! synchronous events to
    S‘anchor’ course activities), and

· impact assessment (opportunities to reflect on what you’re learning, mine
    insights, and assess their impact on you, your students, your
    colleagues...).



NOTE:  *a
    “schMOOC/MOOCOW” is our version of a MOOC (Massively Open Online Course):


   

schMOOC”  =
    “somewhat connectivist, hypothetically Massive Open Online Course” --

    “somewhat connectivist” because the course offers DIY and other
    connectivist options but also offers more structure than a typical cMOOC.
    “hypothetically” Massive because the course is open to all but not likely
    to be huge.
