REPLY to The MOOC Racket: Widespread online-only higher ed will be disastrous for students-and most professors

Respuesta, punto por punto, a un artículo de Jonathan Rees crítico con el fenómeno de los MOOC. Por ejemplo:
JR: Going to the library and reading a bunch of books would be equally effective, and probably a whole lot cheaper.
RMc: Have you been to a library lately? Our students are accessing books and other readings online. The library in most universities is full of students on their laptops or at workstations. And, reading books and other relevant literature has always been one of the primary method students in universities do learn. For the most part more important than the lecture hall – as evidence by how many students skip class and still pass. The classroom time is to help them in the process of learning.
Etc. etc.
