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.
