–Curtis Bonk, 2009, p. 29
„It is a somewhat magical or mystical place where teaching and learning never end. Unlike traditional
stand-and-deliver classes, the sun never truly sets in the world of online learning. Fortunately, the hearty
explorer will find that the lights rarely flicker of fade in the Web of Learning“.
From c to pMOOCs
cMOOCs envision the Web of Learning but lack (didactic) support structures
xMOOCs as a backlash: simplifying the learning process neglect interaction and collaboration
pMOOC format as didactically sound MOOC concept
Give Europe a „p“
p as in problem (ill-defined and authentic tasks)
p as in project
p as in production
p as in participant-driven
p as in partners for learning
Connected learning practices among Europe A Conclusion
Information is everywhere the key is to connect people, institutions and tools in a motivating way
Communities of practice as starting points for educational experiences
Problem based perspective (see „Hamburg Open Online University“)
