Joran Le Cren's curator insight, March 25, 2015 10:48 AM
While the opening of education materials is laudable, it is important to understand that nothing is free and designing MOOC is expansive. If I compare this to the open source software, programmers spend their time and their passion on it. Indirectly, they pay the cost of the software instead of the people who will use the software. It was very difficult to develop an open source software few years ago because programmers had to work in paid job at the same time. Now, business models exist where programmers can live on developing open source softwares. Problem #1: lack of pedagogy leads to low retention - yes and no: lack of pedagogy does not help but low retention is more due to the lack of goals of the participants. Curiosity can motivate you few weeks but not months. MOOCs are too long. Online courses shall be shorter, competency-based and driven by participant goals. Problem #2: design for several profiles and languages - sure it is important. But still, it is expansive in time and money. Well, some wikipedia-like platform can do the trick. However, while wikipedia delivers knowledge with up to no creativity, a good educational course can be highly creative. And it is harder to share freely. Take Flickr that share pictures, some are CC and others are proprietary. CC pictures have often a lower quality than proprietary pictures. Problem #3: Lack of funding leading to contracts with locked-down content - true but why platform providers and governments should pay for this? Taking the open source software world again, the companies are the ones who sponsor OSS because they have a direct advantage: they can maintain a high-quality software without R&D. Back to the educational world, ask the companies to sponsor the educational resources to participate to their employees' continuous training. Some other quotes : - "shall not require a registration" : IMO, both learners and educators benefit of the data collected during the online learning. - "it is a right for all citizens" : you can argue that citizens shall have access to content produced with public money but it is only true in one country. What about foreigners accessing content produced by this country's citizens money.
