“From Teaching to Learning.” Barr & Tagg, 1995http://www.ius.edu/ilte/pdf/BarrTagg.pdf
“A paradigm shift is taking hold in American higher education. In its briefest form, the paradigm that has governed our colleges is this: A college is an institution that exists to provide instruction. Subtly but profoundly we are shifting to a new paradigm: A college is an institution that exists to produce learning. This shift changes everything. It is both needed and wanted.”
“From Teaching to Learning.” Barr & Tagg, 1995
“To say that the purpose of colleges is to provide instruction is
like saying that General Motors' business is to operate assembly
lines or that the purpose of medical care is to fill hospital beds. We now see that our
mission is not instruction but rather that of producing learning with every student by whatever
means work best.”

“From Teaching to Learning.” Barr & Tagg, 1995
“In the Instruction Paradigm, faculty are conceived primarily as disciplinary experts who impart knowledge by lecturing. They are the essential feature of the ‘instructional delivery system.’ The Learning Paradigm, on the other hand, conceives of faculty as primarily the designers of learning environments; they study and apply best methods for producing learning and student success.”

Are MOOCs the end of the community college?
• Did home taping kill music? • Did free software kill the software industry? • Does creating a thirst for and enjoyment of learning
create less of a demand for college? • Does the act of opening ourselves to change create less or more
opportunity? • The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level
of thinking we were at when we created them. -Albert Einstein
MOOCs for the Community Colleges?
• Alternative Pathway for Basic Skills• Pre-Assessment Activity• 6 week grammar review within semester
for students in writing intensive classes (English, history, philosophy, etc.) and beyond.• Summer Bridge curriculum (cf. Cal State
remediation)• Your thoughts??
