A design framework for Open Learning in a Network Society Is the future the same as the past (only more intense)? Or qualitatively different?

Tech-push. Demand-pull NSU Model

Learning Upgrade> Economic Model

Learning Product Learning Services Transformational Service/Platforms

Business as usual R&D upgrades (2/3 yrs)

xMOOCs, education menus

VLEs Distributed Learning Hubs

Digital Upgrade e-service delivery JISC e-portfolio (2/7 yrs)

User-centric BYOD

Network P2P Democracy

Aggregate then Curate at home

A of Participation / Pattern Design

Multi-context co-creation (5/25 yrs)

Key;Learning Upgrade1. Learning Product; existing ed system, e-enabled with new learning products (apps, tablets etc) (course-based)2. Learning Services; economic shift to a service model of ed provision, e.g. universities as accreditation hubs (portfolio-based)3. Transformational Platforms; Distributed Community Service Architecture in place, i.e an 'innovation' model of learning provision (co-produce)

Economic Modela) Business as Usual; assumes that neo-con monopoly capitalist model of economy (1986-2007) will continue once banks healthy again…b) Digital Upgrade; assumes that we are moving to an economic model of production which is 'digital by default'c) Network (p2p) Democracy; assumes that current transition to a digital economy will be accompanied by socio-political transformations based on participatory model of social engagement.

9 Business Opportunitiesa1 - TSB Model, high-end R&D product upgrades a2 - Grab global market share & sell accreditation (Uni’s as brands) a3 - Universities as community hubs (get rid of UK Town & Gown)b1 - better course-based learning products, course-apps, e-service deliveryb2 - JISC Architecture, e-portfolio course aggregation across post-compulsoryb3 - Accreditation Toolkits modela1 - course-based, e-enabled learning across distributed locations (home)a2 - learner-centric learning, resources aggregated & curated on BYODa3 - NetworksServicesUsers (Next 2021) multi-context distributed Co-creation
