Freelance teachers can cut out the middle man by gaining their own client base, choosing how much they wish to charge and by having more freedom in choosing their most effective teaching methodology.

What is perhaps most interesting about this, is that Moody's - yes, they - are interested in MOOCs at all. This shows that xMOOCs (unlike cMOOCs) are an innovation in the costing of Higher Ed., not their pedagogy. So, we do not get better education with them, but a more affordable education, if indeed we do. University World News agrees: "But the important development associated with MOOCs is that they are able to offer exponentially larger enrolments. And, with these, the potential profits are much larger." I suggest we acknowledge that xMOOCs make for lousy pedagogy and only value them for what they are, a means to make higher education cheaper. Then we can at least start talking about the question of whether we are ok with that. (@pbsloep, thanks to @guzdial)

There's more to teaching than having time to teach. There's value and there's progress.

Quite a deep synthesis of emerging trends. What is most interesting to me is the second part of the article, in which the 7 trends are conidered in combinations with one another, creating reverberating trends upon trends. |

Thoughts about teachers as consultants?
