2 YEARS, 4 KEY IDEAS, SOME NUMBERS, THOUSANDS LINES OF CODE, 1 DEMO, 4 EXAMPLES : 1 SHOW

4 big ideas1.- MOOC's are, as we have never saw before, a pure exercise of introducing the Education in the Internet world, not the opposite: (using internet in education)

2.- Starting a MOOC is like to launch a startup. There are some learned lessons about it we can apply, v.g. the use of the Lean Canvas methodology.

3.- There exists a deconstruction of the roles that the different agents play in the construction of the MOOC. It allows participate in the process to people not trained in instruction design.

4.- There exist another way to build a MOOC: just start for the finish. Begin with the accreditation to guide the creation of the content.

MOOCS ARE THE “SINGLE MALT WHISKEY” OF THE LEARNING 2.0

1st big idea

WHAT HAPPEN WHEN BUILDING A COMPANY MEETS WEB 2.0?

THE SAME CAN OCCURS WHEN WEB 2.0 MEETS EDUCATION

:-( BUT NOT ALWAYS.

e-learning frequently is only a mechanization of old models

What Is Web 2.0Design Patterns and Business Models for the Next Generation of Software

1.web as platform

2.Harnessing Collective Intelligence

3.data is the next “intel inside”

4.End of the Software Release Cycle

5.Lightweight Programming Models

6.Software Above the Level of a Single Device

7.Rich User Experiences

“The next time a company claims that it's "Web 2.0," test their features against the list above. The more points they score, the more they are worthy of the

name. Remember, though, that excellence in one area may be more telling than some small steps in all seven.”

1.web as platform

2.Harnessing Collective Intelligence

3.data is the next “intel inside”

4.End of the Software Release Cycle

5.Lightweight Programming Models

6.Software Above the Level of a Single Device

7.Rich User Experiences

1.Learning happens in the web, not tutors, p2p learning

2.Size matters. User as beta tester.

3.“Open Content is in the air”. Content as excuse for connectivism.

4.Continuous development. MVP for start.

5.Learning platform as core of the Personal Learning Environment.

6.Responsive design.

7.Rich learning experience and connectivism experiences. Gamification.

CREATE A MOOC IS LIKE LAUNCH A STARTUP

2nd big idea

A startup company or startup is a company, a partnership or temporary organization designed to search for a repeatable and scalable business model.These companies, generally newly created, are in a phase of development and research for markets.
