- @gsiemens If there's time for questions, ask Merrill to summarize the empirical literature on learner control. =) in reply to gsiemens #
- @gsiemens It will feel like a public flogging at first, but that will give you an opportunity to provide a compelling response! =) #edmedia in reply to gsiemens #
- @gsiemens Absolutely! #edmedia in reply to gsiemens #
- @gsiemens Key phrases to watch out for – "blind leading the blind" and "pooled ignorance." #edmedia in reply to gsiemens #
- @gsiemens Based on the ideas that became the self-org paper, Merrill and I have been having this argument for 10 years now. #edmedia in reply to gsiemens #
- @gsiemens "Successful learner control" is highly correlated with learner expertise. #edmedia in reply to gsiemens #
- @gsiemens Merrill's critiques of learner control will all deal with "novices." #edmedia in reply to gsiemens #
- @gsiemens Try to make him cede this point publicly.
#edmedia in reply to gsiemens # - @gsiemens You're an expert and have context in which to interpret your learning. #edmedia #
- @gsiemens The problem comes when we ask novices to learn as if they were experts. And Merrill is more interested in novices. #edmedia #

So here I was, looking forward to upgrading my blog to Wordpress 2.5… I waited until the evening so that I would have plenty of time when things inevitably went wrong with the upgrade. But one

later, after about 30 seconds everything is up and working. Huh.
