So today I was stumbling around the OLS site and found the following exchange.
This is it… this is what Open Learning Support is about. autounfocus readers may find this boring or even lame, but I’m just so excited to see an instance of OLS facilitating the kind of interaction we intended that I just had to make a post…
Our Open Learning Support pilot project went live this morning. There are now seven MIT OpenCourseWare “courses” pointing to OLS communities:
Linear Algebra
Introduction to Computers and Engineering Problem Solving
Introduction to Algorithms
Introduction to Optimization
Electricity and Magnetism
Intermediate Applied Microeconomics
Real Estate Finance and Investment
You can also visit the OLS homepage at http://ols.usu.edu/. We’re really excited for today to finally come, and we’re hoping that OLS will have a huge impact on learning around the globe.
But no rest for the weary; even as we bring up OLS and our MIT collaborations, we’re hoping to make an announcement about our next content collection partner before the end of the week.
This is a draft of a book chapter explaining the theoretical foundations (at a high level) of our Open Learning Support project. Attempts to explain the why and how of informal self-organinzing learning communities in under 4000 words.
