MOOC as Networked Textbook and a look back at the feedbook

Un punto de vista interesante. Los MOOC como libro de texto, a partir de una idea previa del autor (Dave Cormier): el "feedbook" o selección de canales (feeds) que configurarían un libro de texto "vivo". Vía @jsalinasi.

More and more I see any MOOC as an event. It’s an event in which you can participate in whatever way you like. The social (and financial) contract explicitly at the core of most courses doesn’t exist. While this may lead to some of the low rates of completion that are part of what a MOOC is, they allow for flexibility of participation. The MOOC as ‘textbook’ is one of those methods of participation.
